 BIO:\n\nSimón Sedillo is a community based human rights film-maker whose 
 work has centered on placing skills, cameras and editing equipment in the 
 hands of communities in resistance so that they may be able to document 
 their own histories and human rights situation. Sedillo has spent the last 
 6 years documenting and teaching community based video documentation in 
 indigenous communities in Oaxaca, in immigrant communities in the US, and 
 with youth of color across the US.\n\nToday Sedillo shares some experiences 
 and perspective for international audiences in the US and Europe, on the 
 local and global implications of the Oaxacan people’s struggle. Through 
 lectures, workshops, and screenings Sedillo helps open a powerful space for 
 dialogue on the effects of neoliberalism on indigenous communities in 
 Oaxaca, immigrant communities around the world, and communities of color in 
 the US. Through collaborative media projects, Sedillo’s work has 
 contributed to a growing network of community based media activism whose 
 primary objective is to share, teach, and learn from one another, about 
 popular community based resistance and the collective construction of 
 horizontal networks of popular power.\n\nSedillo is currently on tour 
 screening short film segments from oaxaca and presenting workshops on the 
 following topics.\n\n-Neoliberalism 101\n-From Militarism to 
 Paramilitarism\n-Mesoamerican Indigenous Principles of Unity and 
 Resistance\n-Challenging International Solidarity: Alternative Media, Human 
 Right’s, and Self-determination\n-The commodification of sustainability 
 and resistance\n-The Fight for Community Rights\n-Bringing it home: The 
 effects of the neoliberal political economy on immigrant communities, and 
 communities of color in the US\n
