Community Broadcasting

 

Hi all, There are only a few things to watch and read for this week, since your papers are due next Friday by 5PM and I know you are working very hard on them.

1) Devorah Heitner-The Good Side of the Ghetto

2) http://www.thirteen.org/broadcastingwhileblack/2009/02/24/harry-belafonte-on-inside-bed-stuy-1968/

3)RECOMMENDED:  01 #414_ Right to Remain Silent

4) RECOMMENDED: Rivera-Hip-Hop Puerto Ricans and the Ethnoracial Identities in New York

As the articles for this week suggest, New York has historically been a place of significant community media–media that acts as a political outlet for unheard voices.  Be thinking about the ways that this media calls for different kinds of spectator participation than either “straight” documentary or “narrative” film.  Does it present a different view of some boroughs we have explored in earlier films?
