[imc-atlanta-ed] Fw: mission statement

[robochik]

Thought I'd re-post this as a reminder since the old links don't work anymore.  I'll work on getting a copy of the editorial policy out to the list so's we can all refresh ourselves before getting started with the website.

Hi IMCistas,
I posted a link on the website to our mission statement and editorial policy, and it occured to me that I hadn't read it in a while.  Thought I'd send it out to everyone in case others haven't read it in a while as a reminder. 
Enjoy!

Mission Statement
The Independent Media Center is a global network of collectively run media outlets for the creation of radical, accurate, and passionate tellings of truth. We are motivated by a love and inspiration for people who work for a better world despite corporate media's distortions and unwillingness to cover efforts to develop an egalitarian and sustainable society. 

The Atlanta Independent Media Center is a grassroots organization committed to using media production and distribution as a tool for promoting social and economic justice.

It is our goal to further the self-determination of people under-represented in media production and content, and to illuminate and analyse local and global issues that impact ecosystems, communities and individuals.

We seek to generate alternatives to the biases inherent in the corporate media controlled by profit, and to identify and create positive models for a sustainable and equitable society.

We will empower people to "become the media" by providing democratic access to available technologies and information.
