The Guerrilla Media in Action Tour
is coming your way!
We'll be in Sacramento:
Tuesday, April 20th
Location: SEIU Hall, 1911 F St. (wheelchair accessible)
Time: 6 pm
The Cascadia Media Collective is on the road with our newest video
from the front lines of struggle against free trade, environmental
exploitation and colonization.
With 120 minutes of exciting footage from protests against the Free
Trade Area of the Americas(FTAA) in Quebec and Miami, actions against the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Cancun and much more (incl. Sac!)We'll show you how guerrilla media can be a vital component
of today's resistance movements.
The Cascadia Media Collective is a group of guerrilla journalists
from Eugene, Oregon producing videos, audio CDs, pamphlets, and
other multimedia projects. Our goal is to not only inform people
of social injustice and environmental destruction but also to strengthen
and mobilize the community of resistance. We've produced documentary films including Guerrilla Video Primer, A Year in the Streets, US Off the Planet, and Umpqua: Oregon's Threatened Paradise in an effort to create a vibrant alternative to the corporate/state propaganda packaged as the nightly news. (For more on the Cascadia Media Collective visit http://www.cascadiamedia.org)
We reject the model that insists media can only be produced by "unbiased" professionals and embrace a vision where communities work cooperatively with one another to share stories of struggle and liberation. We'll share our stories with you and invite you to get involved in producing or supporting D.I.Y. (do it yourself!) media in your community.

Medicine Lake is threatened by Calpine, ENRON's spawn in the CA "energy crisis" a few years ago. The sacred healing waters of this lake could be permanently altered by Calpine's geothermal drilling, bringing hydrogen sulfide to the surface and contaminating the lake's healing waters..
Many tribes of NorCal (Pit River, Shasta, Wintu) are opposed to the theft of sacred Medicine Lake by Calpine corporation. Maybe corporate america only understands the value of money, not the sacredness of a volcanic caldera that heals people for centuries, past present and future. Seems like the US government and the wealthy corporations like Calpine just can't stop inflicting cultural genocide against the First Nations of Turtle Island..
from Cascadia Rising Medicine Lake info page;
The Water Quality Control Board will hold a public hearing on April 22 or 23 in Sacramento (details change often, please call to confirm) to decide on Calpine's proposal to use experimental technology at Medicine Lake. The experimental technology involves injecting hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acids into test wells at Medicine Lake to create more geothermal activity. What's at stake is the health of the largest aquifer in California that feeds into the water supplies of many cities. This practice is largely experimental, undocumented and has been found to cause earthquakes and could pollute water. The most likely company to perform this harmful experimental practice is none other then war profiteer Halliburton (Dick Cheney's former company that is being investigated for illegal business dealings in Iraq). Extensive testing of this experimental drilling must be undertaken before allowing Calpine to move forward at Medicine Lake. Demand that the Water Quality Board undergo widespread testing to determine the long-term effects of such experimental drilling. Please come out to Sacramento on the 22 or 23 (Call for details) or write to the Water Quality Board and urge them to not allow this harmful practice at Medicine Lake!
