The Little will screen Pinkwashing Exposed: Seattle Fights Back! (Dean Spade, U.S. 2016, 56 min.) followed by a discussion including local "pinkwashing" activist Isabelle Bartter, as part of the 2016 Witness Palestine Film Series.

The term "Pinkwashing" refers to Israeli government's propaganda campaign to brand Israel as a safe haven for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people; to paint Palestinian and Arab cultures as unfriendly to the same; and to divert attention from the Israeli government's abuses in occupying Palestinian Territories. The film focuses on planned meetings and programs in Seattle in March 2012 by the brand-Israel campaign. Protests against the topic and programs led to their cancellation.
