I havent had a lot of fanboy-ish moments in life, but one took place in 2005 when I met and briefly spoke with Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! She is certainly a hero of mine, and her legendary broadcast has been one of the only news sources Ive trusted and co-signed for years. I also strongly recommend people check out her books. (amazon/Amy-Goodman/e/B0028821KE) And so, Id be lying if I said my pulse did not quicken ever so slightly when this morning, I heard her playing #FilmthePolice on todays Democracy Now broadcast (happens at about the 47 minute mark). Then she said my name. Did she smile a little bit when she said it? I think she did. Im gonna watch 20 more times to make sure. Just kidding. ahem. The story that follows is that of our homey Antonio from Peaceful Streets Project, who is on trial for filming police in Austin. The entire broadcast is worth watching, as it usually is. Salute to Peaceful Streets & Democracy Now!
