Great resource for social justice.

Is it video blogging?  Just kidding.  I don't want to go there.

 May have students use RCA small wonder video camera OR mini flip

 apple's imovie or final cut, and blogger. 
 
 Would be grateful for your suggestions on course readings/websites

 thanks in advance.

Sounds like a great class.  For general resources, I'd point you a few
online syllabi/course websites related to your course.  They don't
specifically deal with social justice, but might be helpful:

SFSU:
http://beca670.blogspot.com/

University of Iowa (my course on videoblogging; it's a bit outdated now!):
http://jenniferproctor.com/?page_id=136

Jen Simmons also developed a great syllabus and materials for a course
she taught at Temple, but it seems to be offline now; maybe give her a
shout through http://jensimmons.com (or maybe she'll chime in here).

Off the top of my head, I'd also point you to these websites:

Homeless Nation
http://www.homelessnation.org/

Alive in Baghdad
http://aliveinbaghdad.org/

Yeah, it does sound great.  As a technical resource for the basics,
given the tools you're planning to use: http://freevlog.org 

My experience is that most people don't have access to a Mac, let
alone people who are socially disadvantaged or people on the move - so
it's also worth teaching the equivalent PC tool - Windows Movie Maker
for basics and Sony Vegas for (inexpensive) advanced editing.
