I saw this video on television (!) in Hawaii over the holidays and was really impressed. Once you see it, you will understand why I was surprised to find it on regular TV. I can guarantee you that it would not be shown on regular TV here in St. Louis.

Indeed, its useful for anyone interested in the social construction of crime, including what Joel Best defines as the four matrix of the crime industry: experts, media, activist groups, and victims. Here is a website you can receive more information on the film http://www.mediaed.org/videos/MediaRaceAndRepresentation/PeacePropaganda cheers, Khaldoun __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
