Free Screening: A Radical Thread (2026) + Q&A with Director Jeanne Finley

The San Francisco Public Library screens *A Radical Thread* (2026) as part of its Everybody's Climate 2026 program series. In this soulful, gorgeous new documentary by Jeanne C. Finley, a back-to-the-land community fights off corporate Goliaths intent on environmental devastation while using the same collective ethos to stitch an 83-foot tapestry that visualizes their story. Set against the dramatic scars of 19th century hydraulic gold mining, *A Radical Thread* follows a Sierra Foothills back-to-the-land community as they invent national models of sustainability in their fight against the corporate goliaths of mining, logging and damming. The community's 17-year collaborative project stitching an 83-foot tapestry visualizes the Ridge's story in twelve narrative embroidered panels. Now, as they face their greatest threat of all, climate-driven wildfires, they pass their knowledge of environmental justice to the next generation. "*A Radical Thread* beautifully weaves together the stories, told through a set of tapestries, of poets, back-to-the-land settlers, and the region's original Native peoples along the San Juan Ridge near the Yuba river California. Despite waves of disruption - from the Gold Rush to mining and now climate-driven wildfires - this film highlights a community's deep resilience and enduring connection to place.--Thomas Kersen, Associate Professor of Sociology, Jackson State University Director: Jeanne C. Finley NR, 70 mins., 2026. Subtitles (SDH) in English Please stay for the post-screening Q&A with director Jeanne Finley.
