Kat from Cool.World will be live-tweeting from her seat in the Zoom court from @cooldotworld. We’ll be updating this blog with the latest action too.
Watch a virtual viewing of The New Corporation film and support our lawsuit against Twitter for censoring the trailer. Join us 5 PM ET January 27th for the live taping of Joel Bakan’s Unfortunately Necessary Podcast with the filmmaker alongside counsel Sujit Choudhry, and expert witnesses Taylor Owen and Fenwick McKelvey.
The New Corporation filmmaker & author Joel Bakan interviews two unlikely activists that got into politics: Joe Keithley (AKA Joey Shithead of D.O.A.) on Burnaby City Council, and climate justice activist Anjali Appadurai who ran as the NDP candidate in Vancouver Granville for the Canadian 2021 federal election.
We’re hosting a virtual viewing of The New Corporation, which you can watch online before the live event in mid-January, 2022. The film will be complemented by a virtual panel and discussion with the lawyers behind the lawsuit – filmmaker, lawyer AND plaintiff Joel Bakan, and our counsel, Sujit Choudhry. Time and Date TBA.
Ours is the story of a powerful tech giant’s arbitrary suppression of an independent artist and thinker’s right to free expression, and the legal battle to overturn it. By Joel Bakan & Sujit Choudhry.
We are celebrating the successful proof-of-concept of our new Cool.World platform feature for virtual community screenings which combines a secure DRM server for film viewing with an event page with ticketing, and more!
