What we've been witnessing, the last few weeks, is Actual 'Democracy' in Action, many of those participating are what we call 'Illegals' in this country of Immigrants, many are new citizens, 'Legal' Imigrants!! The following isn't about that 'Democracy' that is happening, but 'Democracy' participated in by tens of thousands of 'Legal', and more than likely many 'Illegal', Immigrants, as there are many from All over this planet and they have lived/worked here for years, and our Peaceful Native Sisters and Brothers during One Weekend in Sept '05!
Before I begin let me just say 'I have No connection with, nor monetary gain from, what I am passing on', as this will show. But I will be making personal contact with others to help get this distributed
A record of History, a record of Action, Democracy in Reality! commentary :: :: :: buzz-it!
I found the following information, sans my comments of course, posted on the AfterDowningStreet site. Because there was no information about any cost nor contact, except the e-address, I contacted Chun. He has given permission to pass on the information about the DVD's he produced.
Video of the Antiwar protest in Washington D.C. on September 24, 2005
Were you in DC for the big demonstration back in Sept? If so or if you wanted to be or know anyone who was, there is a new DVD by Chun Pan, "What Democracy Looks Like". It's a great job, 47 minutes and filled with all the activities of the weekend. This is an awesome documentary and it is moving beyond words. Contact chunpan9@yahoo.com to order this DVD, and also "Skipping in Camp Casey" if you haven't seen that one! Be sure to specify which DVDs you're ordering. When I received my first reply from Chun, I had asked what was the price he was asking for each DVD, he said a $10 donation if possible, as he is looking to send a number of them to differant Pro-Peace Groups, Pro-Peace Elected Officials, etc. etc., and was looking for donations to offset the cost of mailings for those as well as for personal orders etc.. I had sent Chun my home address in those original contacts last week. I than sent out a check covering the donation of $10 for each plus a few ducats more to help him out with the costs, mailing that on saturday morning, the 8th. To my surprise the DVD's were in my mailbox upon returning from work today, monday the 10th of April, my guess is he won't receive my check till tomorrow. I am the documentary filmmaker that made "Skipping in Camp Casey". I have just completed another film about the antiwar protest that occurred on September 24, 2005 in Washington DC. It is called "What Democracy Looks Like". Notice in the above he asks for No funds to be sent or donated, if you can't afford I'm sure he will forward a copy to you anyway. I just finished watching "What Democracy Looks Like" and in my oppinion Chun did a Great job, in the filming and production. As I had just written him the thing about the Documentary I really liked was that there is No Cover Narrative, except a reading of a personal letter from a service member in Iraq, which will bring tears to any eyes. He used music and song and the Actual events sounds to narrate the Video, thus giving you the feel of actually being back there as you watch He takes you from the arrival of the 'Bring Them Home Now' contigent, to the friday night Candle Light Vigil, at Camp Casey Washington and Silent Candle Light March to 'The Wall', both of which I and my traveling companion Lisa attended and participated in, right through the weekend ending with the Monday Actions of Civil Disobedience in front of the 'Peoples House'! This is a Must Have DVD and should be shown to many as well The only way he is handling this right now is by You sending Him an E-Mail at: chunpan9@yahoo.com or you can send a check/moneyorder with your contact information to: Chun Pan 2001 Routt St. Lakewood CO 80215 Asking for either DVD or both. I asked him about setting up a PayPal, or other, account to make things easier for him. He seems not to be the type who orders online using a credit card or other account number. I than passed a couple of e-addresses to people with sites/organizations that might be willing to handle the ordering and even help in distribution, as many would remember there were some 500,000 folks in DC on that day, out of that I'm sure the numbers of interested folks would be Huge! Hopefully he'll take the information and make the contacts. I will be contacting a few groups to see if we can help out. Below are a few reviews that were with the posting at AfterDowningStreet, I'm adding my own, and as Chun will be seeing this he can use that one as well. Haven't watched his original work from Crawford "Skipping In Camp Casey", but will be doing so soon, very soon! ~~~~~~~~ Below are a few Reviews REVIEWS:
