Indymedia: Brad Will, Bravery, Our Common Struggle

28-10-2006 10:41

I think we should all take a look at what is so important about indymedia work and why it is so important and what it means to each one of us. I hope that we draw courage of conviction from Brad's example and that we stand together throughout the indymedia network and as individuals to redouble our efforts. I think you all know that it could have been any one of us. But, it is so much easier for them to take us one at a time. We stand much more strongly together in what we can all be proud of. Our brave common struggle. Indymedia.

Apologies if you came after nine pm however, as we had to close early due to a (nearly a year old) ‘license issue’ which the police had suddenly raised with the MauMau’s owner. Luckily we could move the screening to a private venue nearby.

Screening of the Argentinian film "i" + Intro + Q&A Session

13-10-2006 11:20

Argentinian film makers including director Andres Ingoglia visited Nottingham as part of the european tour of their film "i". Over 60 people attended the screening which also hoped to inspire people about getting active in the local Notts Indymedia.

The film is a meditation on the relationship between media and power as it is manifested by the worlds largest all volunteer network of media activists: 'Indymedia'. The feature-length documentary follows the first year of a small collective in Buenos Aires as it struggles amidst assassinations, a collapsing economy, and a whirlwind of political upheaval.
