New York-based independent investigative journalist Amy Goodman has been reporting from hotspots around the world for decades: from East Timor to Morocco, Nigeria, and Gaza, and closer to home during 9/11 and the Iraq War. Goodman and a small group of colleagues present the daily online, TV, and radio news program Democracy Now!, which has been on the air since 1996 with no government funding, thanks to contributions from donors, foundations, and news consumers.

*Join us on Sunday, May 31, following the 3:00 PM screening for a post-film discussion featuring panelists Caitlin McGlade, Investigative Data Reporter for The Charlotte Observer; Jennifer Moxley of Sunshine Media Network; and Théoden Janes, Features and Entertainment Reporter for The Charlotte Observer.
