Orientation to Santa Cruz Indymedia and Indybay

Tired of the constant barrage of the corporate media? Have you been disappointed by the TV and print coverage of local issues you find important? Are you sick of the constant right wing slant and racist framing of important issues? Do you want to do something about it?

On Saturday, December 6th at 6:00pm at the Resource Center for Nonviolence (515 Broadway) in Santa Cruz, Indybay volunteers from around the Bay Area will facilitate an orientation to Indybay.org and the global Indymedia network. Learn how to publish your words, photos, audio and/or videos to share with your friends and the world, and much more, including how stories get made into center column features. There will also be instruction on how to use the events calendar to promote upcoming events.

Already familiar with Indybay? Have you enjoyed spending time at Santa Cruz Indymedia and Indybay.org? Do you appreciate Indybay.org as a tool for documenting local activism and sharing event announcements? Would you like to know more about how the website works? Have you thought about getting more involved? That's great and we want to hear from you! Feel free to come, learn more and help Indybay continue to serve the community and be an even better resource/project.

Indymedia is a community project in need of your perspective, voice, pictures and/or audio so that a variety of people are heard in our communities. We are seeking more people to get involved and would love to meet you! See you there!
