ON THE SHOW IN DECEMBER 2012:
Chicago Teachers Union Sit In
The Chicago Teachers Union fought and won a strike earlier in 2012, but now the school board has signaled that it plans to close many public schools in Chicago. In response to this threat, the Union staged a sit-in outside the mayor's office. We will hear from some sit-in participants in this segment.

WHO WE ARE:
We are the Chicago Indymedia Video Collective. We operate along the same lines as Indymedia, fostering the same ideals and processes. We are a collective of media producers, activists, videographers and concerned citizens offering your alternative to mainstream corporate coverage of local and international events, movements and expression.

Chicago Independent Television is the result of that movement.
Our mission is to provide YOUR CORPORATE NEWS ALTERNATIVE.
