Note:

The media – whether mainstream, alternative or otherwise – is a critical source for organizing. As a citizen in a democratic society, reading newspapers, watching foreign news shows, subscribing to news feeds and email lists, and engaging in other activities to keep up with current events and emerging issues is both your right and your responsibility. Your engagement in the world will increase your enjoyment and understanding in this class.
