The black mirror in your pocket is charged via lithium ion battery. Within that battery lies a little substance called cobalt, mined from deep within the heart of what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo. How does this metal move millions of miles, first up from the Earth's crust and then West into your devices? We will watch the documentary Cobalt Rush together from 6:30 to 7:30 PM, followed by dinner, discussion, and perhaps some awareness-raising zine-making :).
