Have you heard about Ava Lowery? She's the Alabama home-schooled teenager whose antiwar videos at www.peacetakescourage.com have attracted 30,000 fans (and wingnut detractors) each day. I think Ava is an awesome example of what young people can do on a shoestring budget to influence the public debate, using passion, information, and digital media skills. I highly recommend Ava's videos "California Dreaming" (a riff on Ann Coulter's statement that Iraq is "just like California, with Baghdad as L.A."), "Mission Forgotten," "Support our Troops and Veterans," and "3,000 Too Many."
Ava's work is amazing, isn't it? If you want to use film to educate your community about this disasterous war, head on over to our new Iraq Campaign homepage. And stay tuned to Campus Progress for more Iraq coverage as we approach the fourth anniversary of the war.
