NEWCASTLE — John Pilger’s latest film Stealing a Nation was screened on July 23, and given media coverage by several local papers. The film tells the story of Diego Garcia, an island territory of Britain whose population was forced off their land so that Britain could lease it to the US for use as a military base. More than 60 people attended the screening.
