Welcome to the Battle in Seattle video resource page. You will find videos of activists and experts speaking out about world issues that are as important today as they were in 1999. You will also find footage from the Seattle streets taken during the most intense moments of the protest. The 1999 WTO protest was an extremely important and successful moment in the history of the United States. This page will not let the truth from those days sink into the disinformation spread by controlled corporate media. Please use this page as a resource and help us to battle the myth that protesting cannot change the world.
Name: Battle in Seattle
We would like you to spread these videos far and wide. This media contains the accounts of individuals who were THERE on the Seattle streets in 1999. This information should not be lost. Please help in keeping the truth alive. Do not let corporate media control the information in your world.

I just watched this movie and it is mostly fiction. Did anyone notice that zero actual news footage was used? That they actually had FAKE "news" footage? Seattle was a sitting duck and the protestors were a bunch of hooligans. Oh, and I lived outside Seattle and watched the whole thing live all day, every day that it happened.

I just saw the movie and it just reaffirmed my discontent for the WTO . It is just part of the world wide capitalistic snake that strangles every human being except the rich! I hope that it all crumbles soon and the signs are there for all to see. The stock market in America took another deep plunge and it made my day! Capitalism is crumbling all over the world and I am glad as can be. Every day it gets worse and every day I feel better and better. We are winning!

Can we all look at the big picture, yes it is great that hollywood finally put their resources to good use, but the fact is this corporate take over of the entire world is still taking place. Over 40,000 layoffs yesterday alone in the united states. what is it going to take for americans to open their eyes??? Instead of being stuck in a coma watching american idol, why not join the movement against corporate globalization, make a damn difference!

I remember how many innocent people where injured. I was smoked out of a restaurant on Capitol Hill. The police shot a tear gas can INTO the restaurant. It is a day I will NEVER forget. I can't wait to see the movie. Many of my friends were walking home from work or school and were injured my rubber bullets or gas cans. It was out of control!
