In September of 2007 I filmed this lecture of David Barsamian, founder of Alternative Radio, speaking about his new book “Targeting Iran”.

I filmed this talk by Angela Davis in February of 2008 at Regis in Denver. Distinguishing between race/gender diversity and a broader concept of human rights she nurtures a more vibrant and sustainable future.

I believe that Naomi Klein’s book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism is one of the most important nonfiction books written since the end of WWII. Here’s a lecture I filmed of Naomi in Dec. ‘07 talking about The Shock Doctrine.

Naomi Klein also wrote another ground breaking book entitled NO LOGO, which looks at the shift towards branding and away from manufacturing by the most recognizable corporations. The Media Education Foundation made a great documentary based on this book.

Jeff Halper was is an American born Jew and peace activist who immigrated to Israel in 1973. He later co-founded the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions, which opposes the Israeli demolition of Palestinian homes in the occupied territories. I filmed his talk at the Tattered Cover Bookstore on October 14, 2008.

Here is a video I filmed of Ramzy Baroud, the editor of The Palestine Chronicle. Ramzy passionately speaks about the humanitarian crisis affecting 1.4 million Palestinians caused by Israel’s blockade of the Gaza strip keeping food, medical supplies, fuel and other necessities from entering. I filmed this in Boulder, Colorado on April 28, 2008. As of the writing of this post Israel was still blockading Gaza with increasing strickness turning away a convoy carrying medicine and causing the UN to close aid centers.
