Pangea Day

Friday May 9, 2008

On Saturday May 10th, 2008 (GMT 1800-2200), we are all invited to share in Pangea Day, to watch four hours of 24 short films selected from over 2500 entries submitted by people all over the world. Over 180 countries have scheduled events where people can go and attend in a group, from small local parties to enormous venues. The project includes inspirational speakers and live music as well as live broadcasts of events scheduled at Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai, and Rio de Janeiro. You can watch online, or even host your own event. Television coverage of the event is available in several countries, and you can also follow the activities on your mobile phone. The full program will be subtitled in Arabic, English, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, and Spanish.

This amazing project hopes to redefine the word "we", something all good anthropologists will find fascinating. See ya there!
