Major speakers volunteer for ACME coalition (see below) Participate in "Declarations of Media Independence!" ACME's 2004 Summit, July 1-4 at the University of San Francisco ACME IS SOLVING A PROBLEM A diminishing number of media monopolies (Big Media) increasingly censors mainstream information, creating false impressions of politics, health, pharmaceauticals, the environment, women's rights, addictions and more. Unfortunately, most media literacy curricula are created with Big Media money. ACME is changing that system and our media culture. Created in 2002 by a coalition of nationally known media educators and critics, ACME holds its second conference in San Francisco, July 1-4. ACME represents real activism as Summit support comes from speakers who donate their time as well as hundreds of their books, curricula, CD-ROMs and DVDs to attendees. ACME is designed to be an inexpensive conference that everyone can attend ($28/night). See <http://www.acmecoalition.org>www.acmecoalition.org for more details. Take critical media literacy education, independent media production, and grassroots media justice and reform to the next level!
