Fifth AnnualNYC Grassroots Media Conference
Members of the NYC Street Memorials Project are collaborating on a Panel at the GRMC entitled "Art, Advocacy, Media, and Direct Action: Complimentary Strategies for Making Change on the Streets of NYC." Please come and participate in this, and the many other workshops that will be taking place.
The Conference is hosting an amazing line-up of activists, scholars, media makers, community organizers, musicians, filmmakers, artists, journalists and many more, of all ages! Participants can choose from over 40 workshops and panels conducted by more than 50 local organizations on topics ranging from how to produce activist video to how to use that video to fight for policy changes. We'll discuss how the internet and social networking is changing the way we communicate. You'll learn how to find real election coverage and the best independent journalism. And we'll strategize how we can begin to create media systems that come from, and are responsive to the people.
