• Long Treks on Skate Decks

  March 22nd 11, 3:27

  In January 2009 three professional Longboarders set off on a journey to traverse two ranges of Andes mountains… on skateboards.

  They carry with them all they need over their two month voyage on their backs. Their route has been described as one of the hardest paved bicycle-touring routes in the world.
  They will face arid desert, lush sub tropical environments, and mountain passes over 14,000 feet tall. The Dangers on the trip are not just limited to the harsh terrain, or their lack of supplies.

  They spend countless hours of the day dealing with loosely regulated traffic, wild dogs, injuries and malnutrition, their Spanish vocabularies are rudimentary at best and they have been warned that even the locals could pose serious threats. Not to mention the risk they take riding skateboards down 200 km long decent while donning 30-40 pound packs.

  Paul Kent is a world record holder, Adam Colton, world famous for his freestyle riding, and Aaron Enevoldsen a young extreme sports junky with an ukulele, document their travels in this series. Experience with them a trip of a lifetime through a magical, beautiful land seldom seen by Westerners.

• Original Anarchist: Ethos Feat. Woody Harrelson (MUST WATCH!)

  March 5th 11, 0:25

  

  A must watch for all Original Anarchists:

  Ethos, a powerful new documentary hosted by Woody Harrelson, is an investigation into the flaws in our systems, and the mechanisms that work against democracy, our environment and the the common good. With a stunning depth of research and breadth of analysis, this film delves deep into the inter-connected worlds of Politics, Multi-National Corporations and the Media. Most of us have wondered at some point how we have arrived at a situation where democracy is touted as having created an equal society when all we see is injustice and corruption.

  Politicians openly deceive the public with the support of major corporations and the mainstream media. Wars are waged, the environment is destroyed and inequality is on the rise.
  But what is the source of these institutional mechanisms which – when we scratch the surface – are so clearly anti-democratic, so contradictory to the values we hold in common and yet so firmly embedded that they seem beyond discussion?

  Ethos opens a Pandora’s box that has it’s roots in the cross-roads where capitalism-meets-democracy, implicates every power-elite puts profit before people and finally offers a solution whereby you – the viewer – can regain control using the one thing they do care about – your cash.

• The American Dream

  January 12th 11, 11:01

  The AMERICAN DREAM is a 30 minute animated film that shows you how you’ve been scammed by the most basic elements of our government system. All of us Americans strive for the American Dream, and this film shows you why your dream is getting farther and farther away. Do you know how your money is created? Or how banking works? Why did housing prices skyrocket and then plunge? Do you really know what the Federal Reserve System is and how it affects you every single day? THE AMERICAN DREAM takes an entertaining but hard hitting look at how the problems we have today are nothing new, and why leaders throughout our history have warned us and fought against the current type of financial system we have in America today. You will be challenged to investigate some very entrenched and powerful institutions in this nation, and hopefully encouraged to help get our nation back on track.

• ORIGINAL ANARCHIST: I AM JULIAN ASSANGE by James Moore

  December 9th 10, 9:56

  

  The Julian Assange Manifesto:

  “I am Julian Assange.  I want information so that I can hold my government accountable.  If my country acts improperly and in my name, I want the proof.  I want to know if there actually is no evidence proving weapons of mass destruction.  I want to know if America is working with Israel to overthrow Iran’s leadership.  I want data that has not been spun by reporters that work for publishers and broadcasters with political and business goals that conflict with the facts.  I want to know.I am Julian Assange because I know unfettered information is valuable to democracy and a peaceful world.  I can make the best decisions with the most knowledge.  I can vote for the best candidates.  I can support the smartest policies to help my country and the world.  I am not naïve; I know that not every operation can be transparent but I have a right to know its outcome and how it has affected my country and me.I do not believe Julian Assange has done anything wrong. The cables that have been published have all been printed in newspapers and redacted to protect individuals at risk.  I do not want my country to prosecute a man whose actions are changing the way we get information and how we make critical decisions.  I now know that my president and my country’s military have not been honest about the war in Afghanistan.  I know that my country has killed civilians and that we have refused to acknowledge our mistakes.  I have learned that our allies are secretly consorting with our enemies.I am also Pfc. Bradley Manning.  I know that if I saw the disturbing information come across my desk that I would have confronted the conflict between my oath of service to my country and the immorality of its behavior.  I do not believe I would have been able to ignore American helicopters gunning down journalists carrying cameras.  I believe I would have acted on my conscience and found a way to reveal the facts.  There was a reporter at the My Lai massacre in Vietnam but there was only a gun camera on the US helicopter in Iraq.  And the Internet.  And Bradley Manning.I believe that governments are out of control and citizens have a decreasing belief that they can influence decisions.  WikiLeaks and the Internet are empowering individuals and groups with information.  Julian Assange and Bradley Manning are the first two faces and voices in a crowd that will soon be too big to control.  Their arrests and charges and even prosecution will only spawn a broader resistance against war and deception and corruption.  The Internet is now the reporter.  This is the way the world is.  I do not want to hear that there will always be wars and spying and death.  I want information to prevent them and to build peace.I am saddened that Australia’s government is once more acting as a lapdog for American interests and is not demanding sovereign rights for one of its citizens.  I am also distressed that the president of my country who ran for office promising a transparent government is trying to find a way to prosecute a foreign national, and is preventing Pfc Manning from speaking with his family. WikiLeaks has shown there is an America in civics textbooks and an America that functions differently in the real world.  Adequate information might move us closer to the ideal.  I no longer trust my president.  I do not trust my congress.  I place my trust in facts and I do not get them from most of the media.  But I still want to know.I am Julian Assange.  And if you care about the truth, you are, too.” – by James Moore
