On Saturday, April 23rd, independent street reporter Dahr Jamali visits Chicago to present thoughts on the war in Iraq, photos and video from inside Fallujah, and to give an analysis of the "mainstream media's successful efforts to whitewash the Iraq catastrophe for the Bush administration." The event is being held at Sonotheque, and starts at 6 PM. You can find more information about the talk (entitled What NPR and Fox News Get Wrong About Iraq) and about Jamali's work through his website, at Voices in the Wilderness, or over in Slowdown.
