Carbondale Library WSIU and the CARBONDALE PUBLIC LIBRARY will kick off a new season of thought-provoking INDIE LENS POP-UP film screenings and discussions beginning on Sat, Oct 15 at 2:30pm at the Carbondale Public Library, 405 West Main in Carbondale, Ill. Our featured film in October is BEST OF ENEMIES, which captures the legendary 1968 debates between two famed intellectuals and ideological opposites: leftist Gore Vidal and neoconservative William F. Buckley, Jr. Their televised sparring shaped a new era of Photo: ABC Photo Archives/ABC public discourse in the media, via Getty Images demarcating the moment TV’s political ambition shifted from narrative to spectacle. Learn more about the film at itvs.org/films/best-of-enemies. Leading the discussion after the film are ARIELLE STEPHENSON and ZACH MOSS, members of SIU’s award-winning debate team. The SIU debate team won the national championship in 2015 and has been ranked #1 or #2 in the country every year since 2008. INDIE LENS POP-UP is a neighborhood series that brings people together for film screenings and community-driven conversations based on documentaries seen on the PBS series INDEPENDENT LENS. All local INDIE LENS POP-UP events are free and open to the public. For more details, go online at wsiu.org/indielenspopup.
