Text of Note

Whether it be a camcorder to get an important protest on the nightly news, a video screening to promote a little-known issue, the Web to offer radical documentaries you can't find in your local video stores or mobile telephones to give access to images and sounds that were never before possible, video provides an enormously powerful took for those who want to make a difference.
