Roundtable 1:  ENGAGING THE POLITICAL PROCESS (FOR BETTER &/OR WORSE)
These films and videos document and investigate the successes and failures of political activities – from elections to protests and picketing.

About this roundtable series:

A how-to and critique of techniques and tactics for political activism, direct action, and dissent taught through radical and experimental documentary. In this roundtable series we will present screenings and discussions with media makers, theorists, thinkers and activists.

Pedagogy for Dissent surveys documentary media created at the intersection of art and activism, exploring the power of the image, culture jamming experiments, tactics and strategies of media making and distribution. We will take a critical and grateful look at activism of the past in order to design effective contemporary modes of dissent.

Coming up:

Roundtable 2: MANIFESTOS & INDEPENDENT JOURNALISM

Roundtable 3: TACTICAL & STRATEGIC MEDIA
