This is a great oppourtunity to meet others who are interested in building an alternative media movement in Sacramento and the Central Valley!
Indymedia is a collective of independent media organizations and hundreds of journalists offering
grassroots, non-corporate coverage. Indymedia is a democratic media outlet for the creation of radical, accurate, and passionate tellings of truth.
The Sacramento IMC website can soon be found at http://www.sacindymedia.org

I usually conduct a CASA Recovery Meeting for homeless addicts in recovery at the Salvation Army Homeless Shelter on Sundays and have one on June 11th at 7 PM. So I do not not think I will be able to attend this potluck/event. I hope there will be like a media package for companeros or another training session soon.

My amgio Jeff will conduct our CASA Meeting this Sunday at the Salvation Army, thus, I will be able to check out the Orientation.
I contacted SHOC ~ the Sacramento Homeless Organizing Committee, a prison activist-sister about this event and I hope that people woriing with the immigrant rights movement here in Sacramento will be there too.
I am a strong advocate of bridging the Digital Divide between the 'haves' with Internet Access and the 'have-nots' without Internet Access and have belonged to the Digital Divide Network for a few years now.

I am surprised that no one else from Sacramento but big mouth me has posted a comment here yet. I have been tried to explain to street people I meet abut Indymedia and the importance of Internet Power!
I hope I get this html stuff right and wish there was a Preview function with this program.
