This hour long commentary, produced by BiG TeA PaRtY, was filmed during the protests that erupted when the Republicans first nominated George Bush for president at their national convention in Philadelphia in 2000.
This award winning video is a blue-print for the modern protest movement. It outlines how and why protests happen. Plus it offers detailed information on the sorry state of health care in America, our problems with gun violence, our eroding rights to dissent and the many varied reasons people feel compelled to protest. Tips on how to organize a protest, jail solidarity and the importance of independent media are included alongside insightful and witty commentary. Says “The Chicago Tribune:” [Speaking of video host Elizabeth Fiend] “Her documentary on the demonstrations protesting the Republican Convention in Philadelphia was pretty much the only coverage I can remember that actually told you what the protesters were protesting.”
Previously aired: Thursday, July 10th at 8:30 PM and Friday, July 11, at 10 AM
DUTV, Cable channel 54 Philadelphia.
Unconventional Coverage: The Message and The Means is the Winner Best Documentary, Festival of Independents, Philadelphia Film Festival
