A movement that makes its own media has considerable advantages and better chances of success than those that must depend on commercial media to tell their story and define their narrative. Narco News publisher Al Giordano and Torture in Egypt publisher Noha Atef, both of the School of Authentic Journalism, share practical tips on citizen media with an emphasis on strategies, tactics and tools for organizers and participants in social movements, nonviolent campaigns and civil resistance. This session took place at the 2010 Fletcher Summer Institute for the Advanced Study of Nonviolent Conflict.
