The Twin Cities IMC has broken out of the Silicon Tower with the Free Press<\/i>, a newspaper that aims to \"liberate media in the Twin Cities\". The Free Press<\/i> will be distributed primarily in low-income neighborhoods less likely to have internet access.

<\/p>

Topics in this issue include police brutality, sweatshops, the corporatization of public education, Green Party politics, an interview with Stephanie Autumn (ex-wife of Leonard Peltier, and an activist for his cause), and a story about infiltrating a recruitment dinner for the Philip Morris marketing department.

<\/p>

Out-of-towners can view\/download PDFs<\/a> of the paper, or recieve a hard-copy in the mail by sending $2 to the Twin Cities IMC | PO Box 13414 | Minneapolis MN 55414-5414.

The name \"Free Press\" is a shout-out of admiration to the \"LA Free Press\", which published in the 1970's and was revived by the LA-IMC during the Democratic National Convention.<\/p>\n","contact":"mspimc@riseup.net","link":"","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/html","summary":"The Twin Cites IMC's \"Free Press\" newspaper hit the streets on J20.
