As many of you know, I was involved with helping MoveOn get off the ground back in 1998, when I was at People For the American Way. Since then, they have come a long way to being a political force. A new documentary has just come out that Brave New Films is helping to promote, titled MoveOn: The Movie. The trailer is here, and it looks fantastic. It really documents the energy and the new strategy of doing multi-issue politics rather than single-issue siloed politics that has held the progressive movement back for so long. Since MoveOn's founding, many more groups, both at the national level like PCCC and at the state level, have seen themselves as part of a movement, and pitched in with various campaigns. MoveOn really has revolutionized progressive politics.
I'm telling you about this because OpenLeft has partnered with Brave New Films to help release both MoveOn: The Movie as well as Robert Greenwald's new film, Rethinking Afghanistan, based in large part on his recent trip there. For every DVD purchase you buy, OpenLeft will get $5, which will help us do our brand of multi-issue activism and building progressive infrastructure. It's a two-fer, and helps promote these great films. And I think you'll like both.
Please click here to purchase MoveOn: The Movie, and click here to purchase Rethink Afghanistan. And thanks for helping support progressive infrastructure (squared).
