Video Action
"We Interrupt This Empire," a collaborative work by Bay Area video activists, documents the direct actions that shut down San Francisco's financial district in the weeks following the US invasion of Iraq. The film reveals the diverse show of resistance, takes a critical look at the corporate media coverage of the war, and explores such issues as the military industrial complex and the current imperialist drive of the United States. The documentary will be shown on Saturday, Jan. 17, at 9 p.m., at Cafe Mawonaj (624 T St. NW; Shaw/Howard University Metro).
DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
