The Angelo and Jennette Volpe Library and Media Center is presenting the film series “Other Americans: Voices From Outside the Mainstream” at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays through April 19.

Several independently produced works are scheduled throughout the series covering issues of social, economic, and environmental injustices:

* March 22, “Razing Appalachia": small town Blair, W.V., and its fight against Arch Coal Inc.’s plans to expand its Del-Tex strip mine just above the town.

* March 29, “Southbound”: the quiet move in recent years by multinational wood products companies from the heavily logged national forests in the Pacific Northwest to the mostly privately owned, recovering forests of the southeastern U.S.

* April 5, “Power: The James Bay Cree Indians Versus Hydro-Quebec”: the five-year battle to save the Great Whale River and the traditional Cree way of life.

* April 12, “La Boda”: the life of migrant communities in Mexico, Texas and California.

* April 19, “Where Do You Stand? Stories from an American Mill": the struggle of North Carolina textile workers and their efforts to cope with a rapidly changing social and economic climate.

There is no charge for viewing the films, and everyone is invited. All showings will be in Volpe Library, Room 110. Call 3544 or e-mail pmcgee for more information.
