Terrorizing Dissent, New Documentary on RNC Repression Release

Terrorizing Dissent, New Documentary on RNC Repression Release
The Glass Bead Collective, Twin Cities Indymedia, and other independent media activists will release a new film, Terrorizing Dissent: Election Cut, an expose of events at the 2008 Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Featuring first-person accounts and footage from more than forty cameras on the streets, "Terrorizing Dissent" focuses on the story of dissent suppressed. People charged with "conspiracy to riot in furtherance of terrorism" speak out against the government's campaign to manipulate media coverage and label civil disobedience and community organizing as terrorism.
Cut from hundreds of hours of donated footage, "Terrorizing Dissent: Election Cut" will be released for free on the Internet in HD, FLV and Quicktime formats, under the Creative Commons / CopyLeft license, and its producers encourage everyone to share this important film.
Free screenings of the film will be offered in both Minneapolis, MN and
Oakland, CA:
Sunday, November 2nd:
* Arise! Bookstore (2441 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN) at 7 pm.
Monday, November 3rd:
* Arise! Bookstore (2441 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN) at 7 pm.
* AK Press (674-A 23rd Street, Oakland, CA) at 8 pm.
Another Minneapolis-area screening on Thursday, October 30th is also being scheduled.

TC Indymedia plans to organize a new video project collective as an extension of the work behind producing "Terrorizing Dissent."
