As consolidation and a lack of diversity in mass media grow in the U.S., a movement of media reformers, community media-makers and activists is resisting and standing in opposition to the corporate control of how we communicate. This past June, the National Conference on Media Reform in Minneapolis and the Allied Media Conference in Detroit were gathering spaces to address this important issue. Local filmmaker and media producer Matt Gossage will report back on the issues covered at these two conferences and the national organizing movements which met there. This interactive discussion will focus on how the policies of media justice are crucial to all communities and social justice movements. | ||

Irwin Tang will lead a discussion on his new book, "Gook: John McCain's Racism and Why It Matters" on Thursday September 11 at Monkey Wrench Books. The book shocks and awes readers with a detailed history of Senator John McCain's racial bias, including his habit of using the racial slur, "gook." Tang links racism with warmongering and examines McCain's historic compulsion to start and maintain shooting wars in foreign countries. We'll see you at 8 pm on September 11 at Monkey Wrench Books. | ||
