Roger Ross Williams – God Loves Uganda @ Ashland Independent Film Festival 2013

I’m always at least a day behind in watching The Daily Show, but thanks to my DVR, I don’t have to watch it with commercials. Last night’s show (1/13/14) featured Roger Ross Williams who was at last year’s Ashland Independent Film Festival.

I volunteered to take photos of his Q&A session with the Ashland Armory audience so it was kind of fun to see a familiar face on national TV.

BTW, the 2014 Ashland Independent Film Festival is coming up in early April.

With last weekend’s loss to Northwest, the Southern Oregon University Men’s Basketball Team dropped from #6 to #7 in the NAIA Division II Men’s Basketball Coaches’ Top 25 Poll. Hopefully the downward trend will be reversed beginning with Saturday night’s game against OIT. The game is in Ashland and will sell out so buy your tickets early.
