SUMMARY:William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe
DESCRIPTION:
 William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe (2009)<br 
 />\n
 <br />\n
 Produced and directed by Emily 
 and Sarah Kunstler, the daughters of William 
 Kunstler. The NY Times described him as "the 
 most hated and most loved lawyer in America." 
 The sisters were awarded the L'Oreal Women 
 of Worth Vision Award at the 2009 Sundance 
 Film Festival and just recently won the Special 
 Jury Prize for Best New Filmmakers at the 
 Traverse City Film Festival.<br />\n
 <br />\n
 This movie explores the life of their father, 
 the late radical civil rights lawyer. In the 
 1960s and 70s, Kunstler fought for civil rights 
 with Martin Luther King Jr. and represented 
 the famed "Chicago 8" activists who protested 
 the Vietnam War. When the inmates took over 
 Attica prison, or when the American Indian 
 Movement stood up to the federal government 
 at Wounded Knee, they asked Kunstler to be their 
 lawyer.<br />\n
  <br />\n
 Assistant Professor 
 of Law Catherine Grosso of the MSU College 
 of Law will introduce the film and lead a discussion 
 afterward. <br />\n
