DESCRIPTION:** This event is free and open to the public. **\n\nAmy Goodman comes to 
 Santa Cruz on Monday afternoon, May 15th, from 3:00-5:00 as part of the 
 Democracy Now!: Covering the Movements Changing America A Talk by 
 Journalist Amy Goodman tour, with the paperback release of her book, 
 Democracy Now! This free, in-store event will include a book signing 
 following Amy Goodman's talk of Democracy Now!, with signing line priority 
 given to those who purchase a copy of the book. You can purchase your copy 
 at Bookshop Santa Cruz, or online below.\nFrom the standoff at Standing 
 Rock over the Dakota Access Pipeline, to the voices of grassroots leaders; 
 from Black Lives Matter activists to the stories of those fighting for 
 peace, climate justice, migrant rights, and LGBTQ equality; from uncovering 
 government surveillance to fighting attacks on freedom of the press, 
 Democracy Now! has been reporting for two decades from the front lines of 
 the movements that are changing America and changing the world. \n\nIn 
 these times of war and elections, movements and uprisings, we need 
 independent media more than ever. The commercial media serves as a 
 mouthpiece for corporate and government interests--giving a platform to the 
 pundits and the pollsters who know so little about so much, explaining the 
 world to us and getting it so wrong.\n\nFree speech is democracy’s last 
 line of defense. We must demand it, defend it, and most of all, use 
 it--now.\n\nAMY GOODMAN is the host and executive producer of Democracy 
 Now! a daily, global grassroots news hour, broadcasting on over 1,400 
 public television and radio stations around the U.S. and the world, with 
 millions accessing it online at democracynow.org. An acclaimed 
 international journalist, she has won the Right Livelihood Award, widely 
 known as the Alternative Nobel Prize. Goodman is also the recipient of a 
 lifetime achievement award from Harvard’s Nieman Foundation of 
 Journalism, the George Polk Award, the Robert F. Kennedy Prize for 
 International Reporting, and the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia Award. This is 
 her sixth New York Times bestselling book.\n\nIntroduced by her co-author, 
 Democracy Now!'s Denis Moynihan\nDENIS MOYNIHAN has been working with 
 Democracy Now! since 2000. He is a bestselling author and a King Features 
 syndicated columnist. He lives in Colorado, where he founded community 
 radio station KFFR.\n
