>>>Hello,
>>>      Thank you to everybody for your kind response and suggestions 
>>>regarding my recent offer of free audiotaped lectures by 
>>>progressive speakers to any library that will shelve them.  A 
>>>couple of people suggested that I write a more detailed 
>>>announcement, so here it is:  I've been doing a great deal of 
>>>independent media work for the past several years in community 
>>>radio, public access TV, book co-ops and other projects.  The 
>>>broadcast work was simply recording lectures of progressives and 
>>>airing them.  The speakers have always been enthusiastic 
>>>supporters of my efforts to share their thoughts with others. 
>>>Oftentimes, I would get requests from listeners for copies of the 
>>>tapes.  They've also been used as fundraisers for activist groups, 
>>>and they're a convenient technology for busy people to become 
>>>acquainted with alternative perspectives.  The right-wing has been 
>>>disseminating taped lectures of their thinkers for years, to say 
>>>nothing of their near total monopolization of the discussion over 
>>>the country's radio waves.
>>>      Here in Denver, where I live, the Denver Public Library 
>>>receives two copies of every tape I've produced (24 and counting), 
>>>and they are checked out constantly.  The impression we sometimes 
>>>feel that people don't care about these issues is false.  There's 
>>>often a waiting list for the Chomsky material! 
>>>      What I do is not much of a business, this is not a limited 
>>>offer so I can turn around and sell you something.  This is an 
>>>effort to network with people who believe in democracy and are 
>>>tired of the massive deception taking place regarding the 
>>>environment, the economy, public services, foreign policy, etc. 
>>>These tapes are great tools for sparking a broader conversation 
>>>around pressing issues. 
>>>Below is a list of speakers and topics, I'll have several more in 
>>>the near future.
>>>
>>>Dan Baum  "Social Control and the War on Drugs"
>>>Blase Bonpane  "State Terror and US Foreign Policy"
>>>Peter Breggin  "Ritalin and Our Children"
>>>Angela Davis  "Race. Class and Prisons"
>>>Amy Goodman  "The Other Side of the News"
>>>Richard Grossman  "The Corporate Colonization of Our Lives"
>>>Winona LaDuke  "Honoring the Earth"
>>>Robert McChesney  "Corporate Control of the Media"
>>>Bill McKibben  "Creating Livable Cities in the Oil Age"
>>>Ralph Nader  "Corporate Control and Social Injustice"
>>>Loretta Ross  "Human Rights Education and Social Injustice"
>>>Walter Turner  "The Changing Face of Africa"
>>>Howard Zinn  "Bringing Democracy Alive"
>>>Plus, the Noam Chomsky collection - a May 5 Washington Post 
>>>article on Chomsky noted that he is the most-cited living author 
>>>on the planet.  And on the all-time citations list, he just passed 
>>>Cicero and is gaining on Freud.  His lectures are extraordinary.
>>>"Anarchism"
>>>"Foundations of World Order"
>>>"Market Democracy: Doctrine and Reality"
>>>"The Middle East Peace Process"
>>>"The Myth of Free Markets"
>>>"Neoliberalism and Global Order"
>>>"Oil and Terror in Iraq"
>>>"Responsibility of Intellectuals"
>>>"Rule of Force: Iraq and Kosovo"
