OPPORUNITY

San Francisco, CA – GLIDE’s Center for Social Justice is proud to continue its thought leaders’ series with a screening of the documentary film Dogtown Redemption, an intimate story of recyclers in West Oakland—a journey through a landscape of love and loss, devotion and addiction, prejudice and poverty. Following the screening, there will be a special GLIDE Talk with the film’s co-director, Amir Soltani, recycler and former minister Pastor Landon Goodwin and the Coalition on Homelessness' Executive Director Jennifer Freidenbach in conversation with GLIDE associate pastor Rev. Theon Johnson III. The free film screening and talk will take place in GLIDE Sanctuary, 330 Ellis Street at Taylor, on Wednesday, September 21.

A surprising number of Americans make their living off vast rivers of trash. They are America's unseen. Dismissed as scavengers and pests, these "pirates of trash" come to life in Dogtown Redemption, the story of an underclass of shopping cart recyclers, poor entrepreneurs who defy Darwin every day, cheating death and despair by seeking redemption in trash.

The film follows the lives of three recyclers: Jason Witt, the titan of recycling; Landon Goodwin, a former minister, who struggles with his own fall from grace; and Miss Hayok Kay, the ultimate outsider, formerly a punk rocker from a prominent Korean family and, now at the mercy of the elements and predators.
