I just wrote up how I cut “George Bush Don’t Like Black People” in under 24 hrs back in ’05. No SoundCloud, no Spotify—just a TiVo full of Katrina, a smoky Canon GL2, a beat-up PowerBook, and a metric fuck-ton of rage. I synced TV corpsespeak to Legendary K.O. / K-Otix’s CC track, slapped grimy titles, exported a crusty QuickTime, and hurled it onto the Internet Archive. We embedded it on subMedia, the NYT linked it, and the site face-planted from traffic.

Point is: remix isn’t a genre, it’s a weapon. When the state abandons people and corporate media gaslights, jack the feed and make your own damn video.

Big News! 🎉

We’re honored to share that A Red Road to the West Bank has been awarded a 2025 Jen Angel Anarchist Media Grant, presented by the Institute for Anarchist Studies and @anarchistagency

This support will help us continue developing our documentary, which connects the struggles of Indigenous peoples in North America and Palestine against settler colonialism, displacement, and erasure.

Co-directed by Clifton Ariwakehte Nicholas, a Kanien’kehá:ka activist and filmmaker, and Franklin López, Puerto Rican filmmaker and founder of subMedia, this project is both a film and an organizing tool — a resource for solidarity, resistance, and education.

We are also deeply honored to share this recognition alongside so many incredible projects, including Mainline’s The Process is the Punishment podcast on the ATL 61 RICO trials, The Dugout, a Black anarchist podcast reshaping radical history, and All Damn Night, a documentary chronicling resistance to Florida’s abortion ban.

After many grant rejections, it feels powerful to know we can always count on anarchists to have our backs. Our first official grant comes from two incredible anarchist organizations — and that means a lot.

That said, we are still in great need of funding to finish this important project. If you’d like to support us directly, you can donate here: https://amplifierfilms.ca/redroad

We’re grateful to the IAS and Agency for recognizing the urgency of this work, and to all of you who have stood with us on this journey so far.
