PGHIMC - Pittsburgh Independent Media Center

On Friday, July 16, Democracy Now's Amy Goodman paid Pittsburgh a visit as part of her 100-city book tour promoting The Exception to the Rulers. After a brief reception fundraiser for Pittsburgh Community TV and Pittsburgh Campaign for Democracy Now, 500 enthusiastic supporters packed an auditorium in Carnegie Mellon to hear Amy tell some of the stories from her book, such as when she and a colleague were nearly murdered by Indonesian military in East Timor in the late 1970s. After her lecture, Amy signed books and spoke to members of the community, including Pittsburgh Indymedia.
