"Borders/Fronteras" Digital Story Writer and Editor: Michelle Banks Part of Weaving Shared Visions ONE DC / Organizing Neighborhood Equity www.onedconline.org Creative Director: Maria Firmino-Castillo Weaving Shared Visions was ONE DC's listening and strategizing project in support of multiethnic organizing for racial and economic justice in Washington, DC. Long-time ONE DC members, most of whom are African American, engaged in story circles with participants from a variety of ethnic and racial groups. These life stories were shared through a facilitated digital storytelling process. As part of the process, each participant produced his or her own short video that tells a story about an experience in their lives in which some form of collective-action led to a meaningful transformation. Digital storytelling is actually a 21st century continuation of the most ancient of traditions. Like the West African djéli (or griot) — who, for thousands of years has communicated in poetic and musical form the life stories of her and his people--digital storytellers also use the spoken word and music to convey their tales. To this, we add digital media, bringing in color and moving image to create compelling chronicles that can be shared among our communities and all over the world. Participants were guided by María Firmino-Castillo in the creation of their stories - using video, photography, music, and narration - in a series of weekly three-hour workshops, held over the course of six ...

1932 The United States Navy intervenes in the Marti Revolt, El Salvador. How United Fruit robbed and killed the people of Central America y Stephen Millies, in Workers World, 3 October 1996 "It's important that I don't get too knowledgeable about the past." So spoke Wallace Booth on becoming president of United Brands back in 1975. Booth had plenty of reason to wish for amnesia. After all, he had just succeeded Eli Black who left United Brands by jumping through his office window on the 44th floor of the old Pan Am Building in New York. Black was just about to be exposed for giving a $1.25-million bribe to the president of Honduras. United Brands was then the new name for the notorious United Fruit banana monopoly. Now it's got another new name: Chiquita Brands International. For decades this ruthless corporation dominated the economies of the countries of Central America. Chiquita still owns or rents over 267 square miles of farmland in Costa Rica, Panama and Honduras. It operates a fleet of 42 refrigerated ships and hundreds of miles of railroad. ALL THE NEWS FIT TO PRINT? In mid-September an agreement was signed in Guatemala between the government and guerrilla commanders. News is finally coming out about the grisly background of the long war there. In the 1980s alone, the Guatemalan military and its death squads killed over 100000 people. Entire Indian villages were massacred. A front-page article in the Sept. 20 New York Times made a rare admission. It said that "the ...
