On <\/span>May 12, 2002<\/span>, artists gathered at\r\nthe Palace in <\/span>Hollywood<\/span> to create a joyous\r\ndeclaration of defiance.  ArtSpeaks<\/span>!  Not\r\nIn Our Name was the first major concert aggainst<\/span> the\r\nwar, breaking through the suffocating atmosphere of war and repression - with\r\nart, poetry and music.
\r\n
\r\nThe concert was a harbinger of things to come.  From hip hop to the\r\nphilharmonic...from indy<\/span> to studio filmmakers...from\r\nunderground poetry houses to the Lincoln Center...on graffiti and gallery\r\nwalls...poets, artists, actors, playwrights, dancers, novelists, musicians and\r\nfilmmakers would join in the creation of a culture of resistance that would\r\nspeak to millions
\r\n
\r\nThis film captures the beginning.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
