As a part of the Freewaves Media Festival: TV or Not TV, the LA IMC is hosting a video screening this Thursday November 7th at 7:30pm.

The LA IMC screening takes place at C-Level, a media lab in Chinatown. The show will feature the LA IMC's cable access TV show. Other recent activist video will also be screened.

Freewaves is an interesting event, a monthlong media festival that highlights alternative media distribution strategies and producers including (but not limited to) Sound and Fury, a collection of labor and activist films from mostly Asian American film-makers; State of Crisis, contemporary Argentinian video; and Mr. Tamale and Ultra Red, a collaboration between Los Jornaleros and Ultra-Red audio collective. The schedule is amazing. Check it out.

Also this weekend is LadyFest at the Downtown Pallace Theatre. Besides being a cultural happening, the Fest is a benefit for the East LA Women's Center. Bands scheduled to play include Radio Vago, Black Cat Mafia and Patsy, and old school LA punk luminaries like Texas Terri and Exene Cervenka.



Skid Row's Angel Excommunicated?
Corrina Gamma, the artist-in resident at the Downtown Women's Center homeless shelter writes about how the shelter's Angel was hidden from public view because it chose to show a not-so-angelic view of LA.

"'…between us…' is an Angel unlike others. The Downtown Women's Center's, (DWC) artists in residence Rochelle Botello and Corina Gamma, together with the program participants, reconstructed this angel with various “bonding” materials. These materials were chosen as a metaphor for the human bonding that takes place within the DWC's homeless women's community...." Read the Entire Article.



That time of year is upon us again, the first Tuesday in November fast approaches; a day when (an ever-dwindling perecntage of) the citizenry will engage in the elaborate charade of ratifying the hand-selected candidate of the status quo in a process still referred to (me thinks ironically) as "democracy."

The LA indymedia collective does not endorse candidates or political parties; nor do we recommend how to vote on ballot propositions (a slightly-to-considerably less corrupted "democratic" procedure usually involving torrents of super-expensive obfuscation before the vote, and legions of lawyers afterwards). We do, however, hope to provide our readers with informative election coverage (1, 2, 3, 4).

In the California Governor's race, polls continue to show Democratic incumbant Gray Davis with a single-digit lead over Republican Bill Simon; but the real story is that given a choice between only Davis and Simon, 25% remain undecided. Green Party candidate Peter Camejo is running third with some polls showing him with 9% support, which would be the best result ever for a third party gubinatorial candidate in California history. Camejo and his running mate, Lieutenant Governor candidate Donna Warren, appeared at a campaign rally in Highland Park on Sunday Evening at 6pm. See photos from the event.
