“The Last Mambo” explores the  world of Salsa/Latin Jazz in the San Francisco Bay area from diverse perspectives of dancers, DJs and musicians.  The film discusses how  the  dance aesthetic, musical presentation and cultural context have changed in the wake of  Afrocuban music’s growing  popularity and commercialization.  “The Last Mambo”, punctuated with  interviews, photographs and concert footage captures the spirit of Salsa/Latin Jazz, celebrates its rich cultural heritage and  debates the nature of its future.

"This Way Out: A Step By Step Guide To Starting A Worker Cooperative"

(English/Spanish)

http://www.youtube.com/embed/M2e0RWiuZNY?rel=0

Currently in production, this DVD guide to starting a worker cooperative is vitally needed.  Millions of Americans with experience, skills and innovative ideas are currently unemployed or underemployed.   Many feel they have been “aged out” of the job market.  Some are students wondering what will be available for them when they graduate.  Many others no longer want to work for corporations that pollute, or engage in other destructive practices.  Others realize that the best way to get needed services in their communities, particularly sustainable jobs, is by doing it themselves and being a worker-owner.
