If last week has you suddenly inspired to get more involved in your community, AFS has a documentary screening that’s a great starting point. From the filmmakers behind 2017’s Under the Bridge, which examined the criminalization of homelessness, Beyond the Bridge goes one step further to address actual solutions to help the unhoused. It travels to cities all over the country, exploring the historical, financial, and community context for giving shelter. AFS will have community resources and discussions before and after the film. Who knows. Maybe it will spark some hope that life can get better, one city at a time. – Cat McCarrey
