We have a copy of*Gerrymandering* here at USC. Is a superb documentary and
would make for an excellent addition to the series,
Cheers!

Peter,
I worked on a good doc that fits right in called GERRYMANDERING. I
think the title is self explanitory. It focuses in particular on
Texas, CA & NY and how the census redistricting was used for
political advantage by both parties.
Web site is here. http://www.gerrymanderingmovie.com/
I have posted on it a few times on videonews. You can buy it off the
site. There is no retail copy yet but Passion River has one scheduled
for mid-Oct. Since the film comes from the director it can be bought
with lifetime PPR & streaming.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
