DESCRIPTION:Power in the Desert is a documentary that lifts up voices from 
 communities impacted by new lithium developments in Argentina\, Chile\, an
 d California\, highlighting some of the dilemmas\, challenges\, and opport
 unities in this moment. This virtual event will be the first public releas
 e of the full 55-minute documentary. \n \n\nPresenters include:\n\nEmilian
 o Rodriguez Neusch\, Film Director/ProducerChris Benner\, Director of the 
 Institute for Social Transformation at UC Santa CruzManuel Pastor\, Direct
 or of the Equity Research Institute (ERI) at the University of Southern Ca
 liforniaThe Lithium story is not just confined to Imperial Valley. For the
  last year\, book co-authors\, Chris Benner and Manuel Pastor\, have been 
 collaborating with Argentine filmmaker and documentarian Emiliano Rodrigue
 z Nuesch to create a dialogue between the experience of Lithium Valley in 
 California and the so-called “Lithium Triangle” in Argentina\, Chile\,
  and Bolivia. Their conclusion: the future of these regions may be uncerta
 in but the communities there that have too often been left behind and kept
  behind are linked in their concerns for people and the planet.\n \n\nTo g
