The corporate press has always expressed the views of the rich and powerful. Now that giant corporations are consuming and consolidating once nominally independent news outlets, there is very little independent reporting. In order to get news about things like grassroots organizing, anti-capitalist political parties, efforts to halt state violence and anti-war viewpoints, we turn to alternative sources. At this forum we will discuss what some of these sources are and how we can access and support them.
Ann Garrison – Contributing Editor to Black Agenda Report and a contributor to The Grayzone, Pacifica Radio, and other outlets
Frank Sterling – Programmer, Full Circle KPFA radio; Producer, First Voice Media; Oscar Grant Committee and Reimagine Anitoch
Ken Epstein – Education Editor for the Oakland Post; formerly communication director for the Oakland Education Association
