Some compared it to the Paris Commune, while others called it the first Latin American revolution of the 21st century. But it was the people’s use of the media that truly made history in Oaxaca. A 90-minute documentary, A Little Bit of So Much Truth captures the unprecedented media phenomenon that emerged when tens of thousands of school teachers, housewives, indigenous communities, health workers, farmers, and students took 14 radio stations and one TV station into their own hands, using them to organize, mobilize, and ultimately defend their grassroots struggle for social, cultural, and economic justice. Filmmaker, Jill Freidberg, had already spent two years in Oaxaca, producing her previous film, Granito de Arena. She returned to Oaxaca, in 2006, and joined forces with Oaxacan media collective, Mal de Ojo TV, to tell the story of the people who put their lives on the line to give a voice to their struggle. Narrated almost entirely with recordings from the occupied media outlets, A Little Bit of So Much Truth delivers a breathtaking, intimate account of the revolution that WAS televised. http://www.corrugate.org/un_poquito_de_tanta_verdad/synopsis Indymedia Indypeer Noam Chomsky EZLN Zapatista Bourdieu Che Guevara Barack Obama Naomi Klein Globalisation globalization emancipation marxism anarquism human rights social justice freedom rebellion left attac critique resistance revolution Socialism politics sociology society repression social movement uprising hope change democracy capitalism solidarity history Indymedia Indypeer Noam Chomsky EZLN Zapatista Bourdieu Che Guevara Barack Obama Naomi Klein Globalización rebelión resistencia revolución derechos humanos justicia social libertad rebelión marxismo anarquismo critico izquierda attac socialismo politica sociologia sociedad represión movimiento social insurrección cambio change capitalismo esperanza solidaridad historia
