PLEASE FORWARD AND POST WIDELY:
This is an invitation from the Los Angeles Independent Media Center Collective to join us at our first meeting for 2009. This will be the First meeting of the 10th anniversary year of the Independent Media Center! Unreal! It’s been almost 10 years since the Battle of Seattle …..and the beginning of a Revolution in Media. So here we are now, at this weird historical crossroad, and looking at what promises to be one of the most interesting and exciting times in recent history. From a story-telling perspective, LA Indymedia is already in the unique position to tell that story…whatever it turns out to be, from the voices of the people living it.
So come and bring your ideas; whatever they might be. Bring your passion for social justice and for communication. Everyone is invited. It doesn’t matter how experienced or not you feel you are about making media. Come prepared to share skills and to learn. We are all media makers. Every time you tell a story you are creating media. Come be part of what is a true community space…a space where there is room for all productive and growth oriented points of view. Come be part of a collective project where there is room to experiment, explore, develop skills and discover new strengths
One of the projects we are looking at realizing this year is a 10 year anniversary celebration of the Independent Media Center. We have discussed creating an event where the last 10 years of LA Indymedia will be exhibited in photo, sound and video culled from the archives from the last decade. This is a wonderful time and opportunity to get involved with the collective and explore the history of the
Los Angeles movement for the last 10 years from the people’s perspective.Even if you think that you don’t have much time….or don’t feel you can get involved with yet another project, you are still welcome to come meet us and find out what we’re up to. Being part of LA Indymedia might not be more than being witness to an event and documenting it in one paragraph so others can know about it…or taking a picture with your cell phone and posting it. Whatever your involvement, however large or small; it and you are welcome. If you’re part of another group that is also doing media or any other community project, let’s hook up and see how we can work together.

11 am.Where: Casa de Sousa- 634 N. Main St., LA, 90012
