On June 25 (rescheduled from June 4 ) we will show THE CORPORATION
In this acclaimed documentary, the producers explore the nature and spectacular rise of the most pervasive institution of our time. Combining analysis with footage from advertising, television news and industrial films, THE CORPORATION is an entertaining and provocative look at the inner workings, curious history, odd impacts, and possible futures of the modern global conglomerate.
A new political identity is emerging on the American scene. "Progressive" as a political identity is displacing "liberal." And it is doing so with an emerging platform rooted in the best of the New Deal, the worldwide Green Party movement, the Green Party of the United States, presidential candidacies of Ralph Nader, Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel, new progressive caucuses arising in state Democratic Parties, and the Congressional Progressive Caucus in the Democratic Party.
