No worries guys. I was in the same situation not too long ago. But, absolutely, Johanna Blakley's video talk about Lessons from Fashion's Free Culture is hyper-relevant for FreeCulture.org, don't you think?
As a start, you could circulate the video on your listservs, facebook groups, and point to fashioncopyright.org or mention the Haute Couture Copyright Act (that's how we are referring to it from now on). That's all for now. I understand y'all are busy. But, whom should I speak with in terms of coordinating efforts and strategy?
