The Hunter Integrated Media Arts MFA program invites you to
Citizen Power in New York City: An evening of film and discussion
exploring our local options for participatory power.
Join us for screenings of What is the Community Board? (10 min.), a
short about New York City’s most local government bodies by Hunter IMA
alum Tamara Gubernat, and It’s Time We Talked (53 min.), a wry and
intense road trip through direct democracy’s history and potential in
America, by Hunter IMA alum Olaf Bertram-Nothnagel. The films will be
followed by a discussion of Real democracy for NYC, a volunteer
campaign coming out of the second movie’s making, that offers New
Yorkers a groundbreaking opportunity to create modern day citizen
lawmaking.
7pm – 9pm on Monday, May 6th
Hunter North 502
