Students for Justice is excited to be working with South Bay Mobilization in bringing journalist, media critic, and antiwar activist Norman Solomon to De Anza. As an anti-war activist, Solomon was arrested with De Anza instructor Rich Wood in 1984 for obstructing railroad tracks in Vancouver, Washington, in order to block a train carrying U.S. Department of Energy cargo bound for the U.S. Naval submarine base in Bangor, Washington. As a media analyst, Solomon has been a longtime associate of the media watch group Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR), and also the founder and executive director of the Institute for Public Accuracy, a national consortium of policy researchers and analysts which works pro-actively to provide alternative sources for journalists.
