Speaking, Film Showings this Week in NYC
Featured in a film premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 24, Incident in New Baghdad, Ethan McCord enlisted in the US Navy in response to 9/11. Wanting to be closer to the action, he moved to the Army, and in 2007, found himself in the middle of the ground war in Baghdad.
Ethan literally walked onto the scene filmed from an Apache helicopter just after 12 Iraqi civilians had been shot to death form 1.5 miles away. He can be seen in the Wikileaks film Collateral Murder, released one year ago, rescuing two children who survived the attack. Ethan’s story of coming togrips with the Army’s rules and the loss of civilian life brought him to say,"the thing I couldn’t live without in Iraq was my own humanity."
Thursday April 21 6:30 pm
Ethan will share his story in person, and via film. Students especially invited.
