Hi Maureen

Howz bout

Not in Our Town
http://www.theworkinggroup.org/orderatape.html
Documentary about the people of Billings, Montana who joined together to
stand up for Native American, Afro-American and Jewish neighbors who were
under attack by white supremacists. In response to a series of hate
crimes, the community moved into action.

Across the river
www.films.com
Documentary featuring a series of portraits of urban heroes who are
working to revive a dying neighborhood in Washington, D.C. These six
different inner city development projects include a group of former drug
users and criminals who are reaching out to juvenile offenders and fathers
in prison, two school programs which use mentors and extensive job
internships to achieve a high graduation rate, a public housing project
which is rehabilitating its tenants, a successful effort to attract the
middle class back to an inner city area and an economic program, which has
led to the opening of new businesses, creating new jobs.

Democratic promise: Saul Alinsky and his legacy
Video Project
Legendary organizer Saul Alinsky led the movement to empower
disenfranchised communities through collective action. His life influenced
the struggles for civil rights, the farm workers movement and redefined
the very nature of political protest. This film examines Alinsky's life
and influence through work being done by two contemporary people's
organizations.

Green Dreams.
Video Project
Describes activities of the San Francisco League of Urban Gardeners (SLUG)
as they organize and supervise gardening projects in troubled urban
neighborhoods. Film documents how these gardening projects are offering
real job skills and a sense of accomplishment to low-income youth,
ex-convicts and people recovering from drugs. Looks at a variety of
gardening projects including the Alemany housing project where a former
trash-filled back lot is transformed into a small farm providing organic
vegetables for residents and Hunter's Point where teens turn their lives
around in an after school gardening program.




 I'd like to find some that deal with diverse individuals or communities
 coming together in pursuit of a mutual goal or project.   I'm open to
 documentaries or fiction films-this is for a mediagraphy I need to put

Check out This is Family:  What constitutes a family? How is the typical
American family defined? How has the notion of gay families evolved over the
past decades? Is there such a thing as a typical gay family?

This fascinating and sometimes shocking documentary profiles the diversity
of gay and transgender households in America today. With the aspirations and
diverse ways of life for gay and alternative households changing so quickly,
is society adapting fast enough to keep up with them?

Maureen,

Here's a rather touching film...

An Unlikely Friendship is a film about a surprising friendship  
which emerged beween an embittered Ku Klux Klan leader and an  
outspoken black woman activist. Told in their own words, this  
compelling story is as sincere and down-home as the protagonists.

Many eons ago (well, 1989, I believe), we bought the video series ³Wisdom of

Thanks for any insights anyone can offer.

[Videolib] Another interesting copyright case

http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/21/judge-rules-against-artist-richard-prince-in-copyright-case/?scp=1sq=fair%20use%20copyrightst=cse

I remember someone here a while back questioning the concept that in order
to qualify under fair use , the use did indeed have to be transformative

While nothing in this case is related to film, it continues to establish
that fair use'  is for taking limited portions of copyrighted works to
create new works.I wonder if the UCLA lawyers are making notes.

[Videolib] Georgia State copyright suit advances

2011-03-23 Thread Deg Farrelly
I understand that soverign immunity was an issue in an early attempt to 
address the UCLA streaming video situation.   So this decision in the Georgia 
State copyright suit may have further implications there.

Last Thursday Judge Orinda Evans issued an order denying the motion to dismiss
made by GSU on sovereign immunity grounds and setting a date ( May 16 ) for
a trial.
