Presentations by cultural workers from three Bay Area collectives (Inkworks Press, Art and Revolution, and the San Francisco Print Collective)that produce public statements challenging mainstream news and views. Their tactics force us to critically assess the nature of free speech, free press, and democratic power in an increasingly privatized public domain.
