Sixth Annual Grassroots Media Conference
Please join us as we work together to chart the road forward, and to build a new media system: one that confronts injustice; lends voice to our creativity, diversity, and communities; and above all, lays the foundation to convert our collective HOPE for social justice into effective and immediate ACTION toward change.
Saturday, May 30, 2009
9am-6pm
Hunter College, 69th St & Lexington Ave, 5th Floor
Please join us at the 6th Annual Conference: HOPE to ACTION
The enthusiasm that mobilized for President Obama's historic 2008 election campaign ignited the hopeful hearts of a country at a crossroads. But even as we celebrate, we must continue to confront the serious concerns that impact our communities. In this moment of great opportunity and great challenge, the NYC Grassroots Media community asks: what is the media's role in catalyzing -- and realizing -- social justice?
The deadline for advertising and exhibits has been extended to May 13.
