DESCRIPTION: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. \n\nSpeakers include:\nAnn Garrison – Contributing Editor to Black 
 Agenda Report and a contributor to The Grayzone, Pacifica Radio, and other 
 outlets\nFrank Sterling – Programmer, Full Circle KPFA radio; Producer, 
 First Voice Media; Oscar Grant Committee and Reimagine Anitoch\nKen Epstein 
 – Education Editor for the Oakland Post; formerly communication director 
 for the Oakland Education Association\n*Organizations listed for 
 identification purposes only.\n\nPlease help us celebrate our return to the 
 Starry Plough by ordering food and/or drinks. Please arrive early to place 
 your order so that you do not miss any of the presentations. An open 
 discussion will follow the presentations.\n\nThis event is free. We will be 
 accepting donations which will be divided among the sponsoring 
 organizations.\n\nThis event is sponsored by the Alameda County Peace and 
 Freedom Party,\nthe Alameda County Green Party and Bay Area System Change 
 Not Climate Change.\n\nFor more information email \n
