August 30 | Moms Club Documentary Screening & Panel Discussion
2:00 PM
Westlake Village
With school board elections approaching, this is an event you won't want to miss. See the film and meet the subjects.
About the film:
When a group of suburban moms discovers their public schools are under attack by a powerful network of religious extremists, they form a secret resistance to protect LGBTQ+ students and defend public education. Using open-source intelligence (OSINT), investigative tactics, and a nationwide grassroots network, they work to expose the movement and reclaim their communities.
Powerful, timely, and deeply personal, Moms Club is a story of ordinary people organizing to defend democracy, inclusion, and the future of public education.
