The Comms group will be hosting a Nuts & Bolts Meeting to discuss plans for the next GA. Join us as we discuss a position on the office in the Muste Building which we will present at GA10. Also, lots of other GA planning; come by and help make it all happen.
Presentation: May First "The Politics of Networks"
The good folks at May First / People Link (authors of book "The Organic
Internet") will discuss the technical implementations and organizational
implications of networks. They'll consider the new modes of political control,
new conditions for political activism, and how remote asymmetry in
communication and power has changed our struggles. Use the sneakernet to join
us meatspace to discuss the flocking of the multitudes.
The classic collection of essays includes "Marriage and Love," "The Hypocrisy of Puritanism," "The Traffic in Women," Anarchism," and "The Psychology of Political Violence." The entire book is available free online at http://xroads.virginia.edu/~hyper/Goldman/front.html
For the past four years, we’ve explored the political dimensions of media and how it shapes our lives. In developing relationships between community and media organizations, the NYC Grassroots Media Coalition is working to re-imagine issues of access to, control of, and power over our media system. That means defining our struggle as a struggle for Media Justice.
