Danny Glover Posted August 22, 2008 | 01:58 PM (EST) huffingtonpost.com Between the corporate media circus coverage of the US presidential elections and the "security" arrangements in store for any prospective DNC and RNC protesters, it struck me that there is very little room for anything between spectacle and surveillance these days. Fortunately not everyone is taking this lying down. Today's launch of the film Trouble the Water directed and produced by Tia Lessin and Carl Deal and... Read Full Story

There was a point last November when I questioned if average Americans really cared about what was going on. With the healthcare debate, I no longer have to worry. The following video (posted by Left Coast Rebel ) shows how informed and upset Americans are. The meeting was set up by the AARP (who better take me off their mailing list when I turn 50 in 12 years) in Dallas, Texas. The people running the meeting consistently talk down to the attendees who clearly aren't wearing Brooks Brothers... Read Full Story

The prediction is that a movie will not do good anywhere in the world, more like Europe, Japan etc, if there is no white hero.  This is the problem that Danny Glover ran into when attempting to get funding for a Haitian story for film which reaches back and tells the story of Toussaint-Louverture , who is a Haitian hero of independence.  Now, Danny has had to work hard for the monies necessary to bring this true story to film, but it was a hard road as he asked and asked for funding but was...

         Danny Glover is a great american actor and activist. I admirer his courage and his great achievements. Unlike others I back his decision to take the $19 million from the Venezuelian president, Mr. Hugo Chavez to fund his Haitian independance film project. I know that many U.S officials might see that as an offense or a betrayal and they might think that as an American Mr. Glover has no busness dealing with president Chavez due to his anti-American position. But, what we have...
