By: Aubrey Smith, Contributor Since 2020, Canisius has had a chapter of the Young Democratic Socialists of America (YDSA). This is a club where students who demand justice go; we want to give power to the powerless, and work towards a tomorrow that is better for everyone. Some of our core beliefs include supporting unions, accessible health care and fighting for climate change legislation.

Despite the small quantity of fresh films, there were still a few quality gems that stuck out.
