[Project-Censored-L] Project Censored Named Community Organization of the Year Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2007 18:30:12 -0600 (CST) Project Censored Named Community Organization of the Year In Sonoma County On November 10, Sonoma State University's media research program Project Censored was honored as the Community Organization of the Year for 2007 at the Peace and Justice Center of Sonoma County's Annual Peacemaker Awards Dinner. Director Peter Phillips, Associate Director Andy Roth and staff members Tricia Boreta and Kate Sims, along with over a hundred volunteers were cited as "models of social activism and consciousness raisers in a world too busy to realize that the truth is not being reported." The Peace and Justice Center awarded Project Censored contributors for their "dedication and professionalism, their courage of speaking the truth and taking on the corporate media, their integrity to delve deeper to find the facts and their risk-taking to educate the masses." Peter Phillips and Project Censored also received a Certificate of Recognition on behalf of the California State Legislature signed by State Senator Pat Wiggins and Assemblymember Patty Berg for the Community Organization Award. "Each year we honor an organization in our community whose work effects change locally and globally," said Peace and Justice Center board member Alice Waco. "We are long overdue in acknowledging the work of Project Censored." _______________________________________________ Project-Censored-L mailing list Project-Censored-L@sonoma.edu https://webmail.sonoma.edu/mailman/listinfo/project-censored-l
