Be The Media! Workshop with Jon Bowermaster: Environmental Documentary- Resist Toxic Fracking Infrastructure Skillshare, Networking, Screening
November 18, 2015 @ 1:00 pm – 6:30 pm EST
Fracking isn’t banned in NY- learn about toxic infrastructure threatening the state. This community exchange is designed to pool resources, research, and best practices for effective organizing. Resistance to fracking and fracking infrastructure converges at The Sanctuary for Independent Media, as media makers, activists, scientists and just plain folks join forces to organize for family, health and home. An afternoon skillshare will offer numerous informational sessions, followed by the opening of a gallery show on Indigenous resistance to fracking in Canada, a community potluck, and an evening screening with environmental filmmaker Jon Bowermaster.
