Allied Media Conference: Day 1

SPECIAL REPORT:

DAY 1 – The RPMA is attending the Allied Media Conference this weekend in Detroit, MI. The AMC “is a laboratory for media-based solutions to the matrix of life-threatening problems we face.” We attended a number of workshops on social media, independent radio, and media activism.

The AMC does offer some workshops on “spanish language media,” but its lacks a true independent Raza voice! It is not to say that the AMC is not important in the overall struggle against the capitalist controlled mainstream media. It is important that we have Raza participate and attend these types of media conferences to discuss our concerns and vision of building a truly independent media in las americas.
