Beyond the Frame: Alternative Perspectives on the War on Terrorism

This DVD compilation offers a series of stand-alone interviews with some of the most prominent scholars, experts, and activists in political and social thought that critique mainstream media's coverage of the war on terrorism. This accessible format is designed to allow educators to bring the voices of these cultural analysts directly into their classrooms.

Launched in September 2001, Beyond the Frame is a series of interviews with leading scholars, experts, and activists offering alternative perspectives on the 9/11 tragedy and its aftermath. Originally a web-only project, the interviews were(and continue to be) available free of charge via streaming video through MEF's website. The project was a response to MEF's alarm at the dangerously restricted range of views presented by the mainstream media, largely confined to the opinions of political elites and a commercial frame dependent on advertisers and ratings.

Featuring some of the most prominent names in political and social thought, the site has been accessed to date by tens of thousands of people seeking alternatives to mainstream media coverage in a post-9/11 world. Created in response to educator requests, the DVD will allow these interviews to be shown in the classroom.

Featuring Interviews with: Seth Ackerman, Belquis Ahmadi, Joan Blades, Maliha Chishti, Noam Chomsky, Jo Commerford, Kevin Danaher, Cynthia Enloe, Henry Giroux, Janine Jackson, Robert Jensen, Sut Jhally, Darryl Kimball, Michael Kimmel, Mhahsa Khanbabai, Naomi Klein, Manning Marable, Mark Crispin Miller, Bernie Sanders, Ritu Sharma, Vandana Shiva, and Alisa Solomon.

    She is seeking and speaking the truth, and we need to think outside the box here, or face domination by the new world order globalists who wish to dominate us, kill us, and make a profit while doing so. They dominate us with the ownership of agriculture, they kill us by bribing our governments to legislate their evil activities and prevent us from protesting while we are poisoned with their insecticides and by eating their tasteless genetically modified crops. This woman is great.

  • Dr. Vandana Shiva is an amazing lady! She has the power to inspire people with her knowledge and eloquence about the ecology, biodiversity, earth, grassroot democracy and so many subject where nature and humanity is related. ...She is the one who is exposing corrupt and evil corporations backed by equally evil American government.

  • @Audrieau That is true, but the bigger truth is that those who do understand, & those who are actually suffering, have not taken action. If you see the long political history, all revolutions for any liberation has been brought about by the people at the grassroots. These people have been kept away from truth, & the likes of us need to explain the truth to them, & encourage & support them to take action

  • @aparaajita10

    Because they have power agendas aparaajita - and so the world go round.. with the wise sitting on the sidelines.

  • @playboysinistro

    You are kidding aren't you playboy (What sort of crazy self-obsessed name is that, by the way) - the clothes she wears are the least of her concerns I am sure - it is the important worlds that come out of the mouth of this totally committed amazingly wise matriarch that is important!

  • Why can't she wear globalized clothes? gosh it's so annoying

  • @jacopman she is a bit of a conundrum, she seems anti-capitalist, yet she expresses very capitalist sentiments... ie being against the WTO NAFTA WORLD BANK etc

  • what?
