A Media Forum
Cal State LA- Los Angeles, CA
11/16/09

Mark you calendars and join American Communities Program as they sponsor a roundtable of award-winning journalists, bloggers, and scholars as they discuss how new media and technologies affect the ways that we generate and disseminate knowledge about ourselves as well as local and global communities. Scheduled to appear:  Madeleine Brand (broadcast journalist, NPR); Megan Garvey (LA Times, co-founder of the Mapping LA project); Dr. Kavita Philip (Department of Anthropology, UC Irvine, and specialist on New Technologies Theory and Women’s Studies); Raquel Hunter (blogger, Mama’s Health); and Dr. Jon Beaupre (Professor of Communication Studies and radio host, KPPC). Please come out and be a part of a powerful discussion as media scholars and students come together and figure out how media literacy can change the way we distribute information, as well as how we interact with new cultural conventions of communication.
