There’s a documentary screening at The Art House in Eugene on Jan 16, 17, 21 & 22 called WTO/99 about the 1999 Seattle WTO protests. Many don’t remember or know about this protest. It’s important that we do. After all, they are STILL using the same tactics.

In the 90s if you wrote a thesis on how Mayor Paul Schell mismanaged every component of the WTO riot response you'd just get a pissy letter from Paul Schell and a high five from your English teacher (Mr. Echtle, you were rad)
Now you get earmarked for ICE detention
Now you get earmarked for ICE detention

We have since added San Francisco Jan 28 @ Roxie Cinema and an additional Eugene, OR screening on Jan 22nd
January screenings for WTO/99 so you can witness the beginnings of the over-militarized shitheads currently occupying our streets.

There's a new doc called WTO/99 that really opened my eyes to how much of this started in Seattle. It was so horrifying at the time, business as usual from the cops now

My 9th grade English teacher called it after the 1980 election. She was anything but alone.
This has been a long time coming and don’t delude yourself that Trump is the reason.

Imagine telling someone from the 1980s that America will end up being run by a cabal of dimwitted Nazis led by a fat stupid paedophile

While the pasty incels who work the federal agencies continue to churn out feeble, bloodless AI pastiches of Axis propaganda, here’s how a living breathing artist powerfully invokes design history. This is by illustrator Emily K in South Philly, a free poster-sized download on her website: →

The multiple angles thing is what was really striking about WTO/99, a doc about the 1999 WTO protests, which happened right when we really started to be able to have a lot of citizen footage shot right on the ground. Recommend everyone watch it.

Saw The Turin Horse at NYFF with Bela Tarr Q&A. Audience member asks "Why is this your final film?." Tarr stares at her for a bit, turns around to look at the movie screen, then turns back to her and shouts "What the fuck is there left to say!?"
RIP to one of the greatest.

Talking to @prophetkotto.bsky.social about WTO/99 was such a highlight of this year (as was every time I got to tell people to watch WTO/99):
Daring documentary WTO/99 wants you to rethink how we talk about protests
For a lot of millennials, the World Trade Organization protests of 1999, also called “The Battle of Seattle” are, if we think about them at all, a footnote in the history of U.S. collective action.
