Illicit war, unchecked corporate greed, and the Bush agenda

Ours is a time of illicit war, unchecked corporate greed, and a presidential regime that supports such indecencies. This is the Bush Agenda, and the conditions for ending it have altered due to the incomprehensible scale of this unparalleled military-corporate-government-media behemoth. Can one person’s actions contribute to checking or better yet changing these huge offenses? And can regular people use the media to grow the scope and speed--the SCALE--of their own voices and principled agendas?

Hi Alex,

This concept is fascinating. I did not know people could have jobs like Antonia’s. I love that your sister does this work - taking on the behemoth Bush complex. I love Ned Sublette! And I love that you are exploring ideas of scale through media.

I’m about 20 minutes into it - and want to watch the entire work. However, it is playing in a fractured fashion. The film keeps loading / playing while loading / so I’m getting a great deal of drop-out speech - or speech so clipped I can’t make out what Antonia or others are saying.

Any ideas for viewing with clear audio? I’m going to stop and try again later - hopefully with some helpful hints from you.

Congrats on this experiment!
Jerri

This film is great! I love the part in the bookstore the most. The film allowed me to think about the compromises we all make every day getting our stuff out into the world.
