fellow IMC-stas
with the help of Sascha, Sarah, Peter, Becca, Anora, and (of course)
SERGEI, I've produced a half-hour documentary on the Summit of the
Americas, and the demonstrations which took place in Quebec City last
weekend.
i have converted all the .wav files to .mp3's, but CAN'T get them to
upload. i will be on a short vacation this weekend, so i won't be able to
get them published on our site any time soon. could SOMEBODY please take
care of this? i think the IMC movement and (hopefully) the mobilization
against globalized capitalism will be helped in some small way by this
documentary, IF ONLY it can reach a larger audience!!!
here's everything you'll need to type in as you go through the upload
process:
