Below you'll find a canned message (which I've edited a bit)
about a free course in how to gain access to the media for
your organization.

I can't recommend this course highly enough.

The course consists of three sessions, conducted online
via a live phone call with the presenter, and a set of
powerpoint slides that can be either downloaded or viewed
on their website.

I took their first session last Tuesday, and I have to say it was
excellent.
* The presenters are personable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic.
* The slides are concise, colorful, and professionally done.
* The information is time-tested and canny.

You can see and hear the entire 75-minute session in streaming
video (or just view the slides) by visiting

Click on the links under "July 25: Mainstream Media: Breaking In"

I urge every activist to take advantage of the two remaining
sessions.

Do yourself a favor, and reserve next Tuesday evening from
7:30 pm to about 8:45 pm Chicago time for the second session,
and the following Tuesday for the third session.

To register, visit the site listed below.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled message....

Regards,

Roy

"The book is very well written...very important in this individualized capitalistic illusory world that enslaves us all within its tentacles and forces us to believe that we are atomized and disconnected beings. Indigenous Lakota people end prayers with "Mitakuye Oyasin...all my relations..." An ancient African proverb states, "A person is a person only because of and with others..." This instructive text is very useful for us living in what we are always told is the modern world, because it reconnects us all and reminds us that ultimately, the endless circle of the Universe binds and connects us all and the Earth is Mother to us with no hierarchy...the ones at the bottom matter the most...like the ants who build mounds and hills, all working in unison and harmony...the book teaches that we were created for community and our destiny is organic community...anything else is doomed..."
