Are you ready to celebrate pangea day?
Have you heard of Pangea Day? Chances are if you’ve heard of it you’re probably planning on watching the films tomorrow. If you haven’t heard of Pangea Day - here’s a little info about this amazing experience:
Pangea Day is a global event bringing the world together through film. Why is this important? In a world where people are often divided by borders, difference, and conflict, it’s easy to lose sight of what we all have in common. Pangea Day seeks to overcome that – to help people see themselves in others – through the power of film.
How Pangea Day came about is back in 2006, filmmaker Jehane Noujaim won the TED Prize, an annual award granted at the TED Conference. She was granted $100,000, and more important, a wish to change the world. Her wish was to create a day in which the world came together through film. Pangea Day grew out of that wish. Watch Jehane Noujaim’s 2006 acceptance speech now.
