  • Media Resources for Macro Social Work Practice 1
    MEDIA RESOURCES FOR MACRO SOCIAL WORK PRACTICE MOVIES AND DOCUMENTARIES 1. Brooklyn Matters is a riveting look at how big real estate, politics, community voices, and the desperate need for jobs and housing clash in one of the largest development proposals in the history of New York City. The film poses vital, timely questions that are relevant to cities across the country: What is the proper use of eminent domain? What role does environmental and economic justice play in government‐sponsored projects? Who represents the community? Should traffic‐intensive projects be approved without mandatory mitigation measures? Should taxpayer money go to acquire private property for a sports area? What and who determines if an area is "blighted?" Does the public have a right to know about the use of public finances in large‐scale real estate projects? Brooklyn Matters brings a depth of expert commentary to the debate and introduces many important community voices that have struggled to be heard on this project. This film's exploration of the risks that come with a concentration of power is important for anyone concerned with who has a voice and who has a vote in shaping the future of our cities. http://www.newday.com/films/brooklynmatters.html 2. Bus Riders Union Documentary: Organizing to fight price increases and to improve public transportation in poor neighborhoods. In this extraordinary video, Academy Award‐winning cinematographer Haskell Wexler records the several‐year‐ long struggle of the Los Angeles Bus Riders Union (BRU) to win better service and to challenge the race and class bias in city spending priorities.
