“Like the author himself, BE THE MEDIA is a unique and vital source of information, experience, and analysis that helps us to empower ourselves. Moving beyond the roles of media consumers who ingest what’s dished out from on-high, those who take this book to heart and mind will gain essential tools and understanding for the struggles ahead — to create media that enliven and democratize instead of numbing and stultifying. If we can learn to “be the media,” the process will move us far down the road toward a society where public discourse and governance is truly of, by, and for the people.”
