 about nigel parry Support Independent Reporting I have been involved in producing the live streaming video from the #OccupyWallStreet protests in NYC that began on Saturday, Sept 17, 2011. Global Revolution brings you live stream video coverage from independent journalists on the ground at nonviolent protests around the world. The team includes members of Mobile Broadcast News, Glassbead Collective, Twin Cities Indymedia and the alt.media ninjas that brought you Terrorizing Dissent and Democracy 101 documentaries. Watch the feed here. Since last October, I have worked with the Occupy Pittsburgh movement to train activists in livestream video production and mixing. This work continues in the aftermath of the Occupy Pittsburgh eviction in February, as the movement transforms in the post-park period. I also continue to work to support Rustbelt Radio, Pittsburgh Indymedia's radio show that will be 8-years-old in May 2012! My background
Other independent media projects have included the award-winning Electronic Intifada (est. 2001), Electronic Iraq (2003-2008) and Electronic Lebanon (est. 2006) websites; and projects relating to police abuses of power in the United States, including the RNC '08 Report—a citizen's archive relating to excessive policing and repression of protest at the 2008 Republican National Convention, used widely by journalists, legal teams, and court solidarity organizations in the Twin Cities of Minnesota.
Promoting positive images of vilified and targeted communities is also an important component of what I do, and pro-bono work for Arab arts organizations, pro-Palestinian groups, activist legal support groups, and artist communities under threat is ongoing.
Independent media has become increasingly important in the post-9/11 period and in an era of consolidation of media power in the hands of a few corporations. Working with independent journalists and nonprofit organizations to produce professional independent media is of paramount importance. Defending independent journalists against state targeting has also become a key component of what I do. Please support my ongoing work. Every donation—even $10—is greatly appreciated and enables me to devote more time and resources building a strong independent media. More information about selected current projects and my history of working in this field appears below. ABOUT NIGEL PARRY'S INDEPENDENT MEDIA WORK
