How a Ragtag Group of Socialist Filmmakers Produced One of the Most Viral Campaign Ads of 2018

"The success of the video shoot raises the question: Why do candidates spend so much money on high-priced consultants who produce boring, safe videos, when ideologically aligned, camera-savvy activists can do it quicker, cheaper, and with more vitality?"
Progressive candidates, Demonstrous Productions has the passion and experience to tell your story. Reach out!

Means of Production, a new working-class-focused media firm, teamed up with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to produce her viral campaign video.

"All that you touch
And all that you see
All that you taste
All you feel

And all that you love
And all that you hate
All you distrust
All you save
...
And all that is now
And all that is gone
And all that's to come
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon." #rogerwaters #usandthemtour2017 #pinkfloyd #darksideofthemoon #epic

The Schenley Experiment chronicles the life of an extraordinary Pittsburgh school - NEXTpittsburgh

A great book written about an extraordinary school that was wrongly abandoned almost 10 years ago.

Some prestigious past alumni:
"... there was Jacob Rothschild (’27), a rabbi and key ally to Martin Luther King Jr. on civil rights whose Atlanta synagogue was bombed in retaliation for his civil rights work. Clifford Shull (’33) won the Nobel Prize in physics for developing a molecular probing technique that “helped answer where atoms ‘are.’” Derrick Bell (’48) was the first Black tenured Harvard law professor, described by Barack Obama as “the Rosa Parks of legal education.” Ivan Getting (’29), a child of Slovak immigrants, helped devise a microwave fire-tracking system to shoot down German V-1 rockets during World War II and became co-creator of the Global Positioning System (GPS).

Schenley also taught Andy Warhol (’45), the “father of modern jazz piano” Earl “Fatha” Hines and wrestling legend Bruno Sammartino (’55). Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Willa Cather (My Antonia, O Pioneers!) was a teacher."

Schenley was a bastion of tolerance and diversity in a segregated city, and often way ahead of the city, and nation, in its educational approaches.

Ignoring the flow of time, did I meet my teutonic twin, or was it a fever dream? "Nothing is certain. It is hard to determine whether these creatures are dividing into their own doppelgangers and do they really meet or is it just their own imagining mirror reflection?"

The Swanbergs live in Utah with their two daughters, Rosie and Maddie. Rosie was diagnosed with Down syndrome at Melissa's 18-week ultrasound. While she doesn't sugarcoat their initial reaction, Melissa says becoming parents to Rosie has changed her perspective on what's really important.
