X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<h1>FIGHT THE POWER: HOW BLOW UP A PIPELINE (2
	026) INCL. PANEL TALK</h1> For this edition of <em>Fight The Power: Films 
	of Resistance</em>, we’re screening Daniel Goldhaber’s incendiary 2022 cli
	mate thriller <em>How to Blow Up a Pipeline</em> on June 25. Eight strange
	rs converge on a stretch of West Texas oil infrastructure with a plan to s
	abotage it. Adapted from Andreas Malm’s 2021 book of the same name, the fi
	lm transposes a polemic into a heist, and puts the question the mainstream
	 climate movement has spent decades avoiding squarely on the table.<p>Scre
	ened in a year when the planet has crossed 1.5°C, when youth activists are
	 being sentenced under terrorism statutes for blockading roads, and when “
	moderate” climate policy keeps locking in catastrophic warming, How to Blo
	w Up a Pipeline forces an uncomfortable confrontation: at what point does 
	property destruction become a legitimate political tool, and at what point
	 does the refusal to consider it become its own form of complicity?</p><p>
	The screening will be followed by a panel discussion on what kind of viole
	nce is justified, addressing the genealogy of climate sabotage from Earth 
	First! through to Extinction Rebellion, the legal architecture now crimina
	lising direct action across Europe, and the strategic question Malm’s book
	 leaves open: whether nonviolence has done what it can, and what comes aft
	er.</p>
