Hey all,

In the summer of 2006, a broad-based, non-violent, popular uprising
exploded in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca. Some compared it to
the Paris Commune, while others called it the first Latin American
revolution of the 21st century. But it was the people's use of the
media that truly made history in Oaxaca.

A 90-minute documentary, A Little Bit of So Much Truth captures the
unprecedented media phenomenon that emerged when tens of thousands of
school teachers, housewives, indigenous communities, health workers,
farmers, and students took 14 radio stations and one TV station into
their own hands, using them to organize, mobilize, and ultimately
defend their grassroots struggle for social, cultural, and economic
justice.

Every 1st Wednesday of the month from 7PM to 10PM your local
Independent Media Center will help you break from the herd and host
amateur, semi-pro and professional short and feature length
independent films with a some sort of cultural, political, activist,
and social message.

The event is free and open to all ages. We ask that you give a
donation when we pass the hat/jar/cup/whatever around each night,
bring an open mind, suggest films for future showings, and if you are
bringing children know they may get some exposure. Drinks and food may
or may not be present depending on if we (that includes you) bring
any.

Be sure and come on out to the U-C IMC located at 202 S. Broadway,
Urbana, IL 61801 (the old downtown Post Office) to this monthly event.
Be prepared to socialize and network with people with a passion for
art, film, and our local community.

See you all there,
