PREMIERE: Infection in Our Healthcare System, August 27th

This Friday August 27, Media Mobilizing Project is premiering "Infection in Our Health Care System" as part of our launch of MMP TV. The event is taking place at Freedom Theatre in North Philadelphia.  The hour-length investigative report focuses on the experiences of poor and working people within a health care system that places profit over people. Spanning from Pottstown to northeast Philadelphia, the report tells the story of workers struggling for dignity and communities fighting for survival in the face of corporate and university greed. The launch of MMP TV also marks an important moment for Philadelphia's media landscape. At a time when the freedom of the Internet is in jeopardy and our mass media is increasingly consolidated offering the perspectives of the wealthy and well-connected, MMP TV is  made by, for and from the perspective of the majority poor and working class communities of Philadelphia and beyond. It tells the stories that FOX News and the Philadelphia Inquirer will not tell, giving voice to those that have long been silenced. Come celebrate the launch of Media Mobilizing Project Television:

When: Friday, August 27th, 6:30 p.m

Where: Freedom Theatre, 1346 North Broad St (At Broad St and Master St)

In a city where unemployment has climbed over 10% and nearly one and four live in poverty, paying the bills is a struggle for many of us. From electricity, to cable, gas, and internet, federal and state actions are making it harder every day for Philadelphians to meet our basic needs.
