DESCRIPTION:Amy Goodman to Speak at Berkeley Benefit  “Independent Journalists 
 Struggle to Reveal Truth in War Time”  BERKELEY, CALIF. (March 29, 2005) 
 – Fans of Amy Goodman, award-winning journalist and host of the popular 
 Democracy Now! radio and TV news program, will get a chance to see her live 
 on Friday, April 22, when she will present a behind-the-scenes view of what 
 it’s like to be an independent journalist in a media landscape dominated 
 by corporate giants and an administration that many feel is overtly hostile 
 to dissent.   Also on the program will be independent documentary 
 photographer and filmmaker Mark Brecke, recently returned from being 
 embedded with the Sudanese Liberation Army and documenting the genocide 
 occurring in the Darfur region of Sudan. Brecke will present critically 
 acclaimed images and footage from that country. Goodman will also be 
 showing a new hard-hitting documentary “Independent Media in a Time of 
 War,” which is composed of a speech given by herself, illustrated by 
 clips of mainstream media juxtaposed with rare footage from independent 
 reporters in Iraq.   The program, “See No Evil: Amy Goodman on Media in a 
 Time of War,” is a benefit for Berkeley Community Media, the public, 
 education and government access television station for the city of Berkeley 
 and the Communication Arts and Sciences small school at Berkeley High 
 (CAS).  CAS is a program created by a group of teachers, students, and 
 parents that nourishes and develops the whole student, with an emphasis on 
 social justice, media literacy, communications skills and communication 
 technologies. At a time when California’s budget deficit has led to cuts 
 in funding for many community resources, Amy Goodman and Mark Brecke have 
 generously offered to help raise the funds needed to continue this 
 important work.   “See No Evil” will be presented on April 22 at 8:00 
 o’clock at the Florence Schwimley Little Theater (1920 Allston Way on the 
 Berkeley High School campus). Tickets are $15.00 and can be purchased in 
 person at Berkeley Community Media, 2239 Martin Luther King Jr. Way, Black 
 Oak Books in Berkeley and A Clean Well Lighted Place for Books in San 
 Francisco. You can purchase tickets by credit card by calling 510-848-2288.
