DESCRIPTION:The Newsreel Collective was a national collective of revolutionary 
 filmmakers in the US who produced some of the most important agitational 
 and documentary films of the 1960s and 1970s. Newsreel filmed from the 
 people’s side of struggle, and left behind one of the most important 
 filmic archives of the 1960s, struggles and issues and ideas still vital to 
 activists today. If you have seen original footage of the Black Panther 
 Party, or of guerilla warfare in Vietnam, or youth revolts in the streets 
 of the US, you have probably seen the work of the Newsreel 
 Collective.\n\nJesse Drew, professor of cinema and digital media at UC 
 Davis, lived collectively with Newsreel members, as a teenage runaway and 
 radical activist. He has curated a program of Newsreel shorts that will 
 highlight the influence of Newsreel and discuss ways in which activists 
 today can benefit from their work. He will also discuss the influence of 
 the work of famed Cuban filmmaker Santiago Alvarez and the historical 
 linkage to the 1930’s Film and Photo League, the NYC-based documentary 
 unit of the working class.\n\n
