[CIMC-work] Re: [Imc-chicago-video] Re: concerns about unilateralism

Dear, dear people:


My concern regarding the video group consensus process is related to the fact 
that the monthly Chicago Independent Television Show represents CIMC as a 
whole, and ALL of us at Chicago Indymedia.  The success, future, and harmony of 
CIMC should ALWAYS come first.  

All of the working groups -- writing, photo, video -- are part of the CIMC 
nucleus.  Although the different groups have separate meetings that relate to 
their respective projects, we must remember that we are, in the end, an entity.

In the spirit of fairness, we should ALL have a say in what the various 
collectives decide when it comes to an important and highly visible project.

We have witnessed what has resulted from other IMC disputes, and we should be 
able to learn from their mistakes.

We are all volunteers here, and I want to believe that the reasons that 
brought us together have not been personal interests/agendas, but rather a desire 
to contribute to the task of revolutionizing the MEDIA in a way that will 
benefit the largely un/underrepresented segments of the national/international 
population, and exposing the facts and truth the way it SHOULD be done.

As stated in the CIMC mission statement, the General Collective is "the nuts 
and bolts of Indymedia, grounded in the spirit of progressive political 
change, committed to organizing democratically by consensus."


PEACE!
