What's the Thesis?
... of an article I want to write. It's a case study of sorts. When I try to step back from this whole Wafaa Bilal censorship at RPI/Republican Protest/Sanctuary closed by the city story there are multiple stories... overarching narratives and inner threads. But the one I am thinking about now is about Indymedia, web2.0, and media activism. Having been part of a few large Indymedia mobilizations, it was (and still is) exhilerating to feel the media activism community emerge from winter time with passion - stepping up to support Wafaa Bilal and document his situation, condemn RPI for its failures as an institution of higher education, support the Sanctuary for Indpendent Media, and then hold the city accountable for its corruption and abuse of codes enforcement.
