- Critical Mass originated in San Fransisco in September of 1992. It spread to Rochester in 1998 when ["University of Rochester"] graduate student Mark Anderson began organizing rides originating in River Campus. Rides grew to about 50 cyclists by summer 1999, but many first-time riders expressed dissatisfaction and felt turned off by illegal riding and the hostility toward cars and never returned. By winter 2001 the rides had fallen apart, and occasional riders would send mail asking where everyone was. Mark finished his doctorate in May 2002 and departed to teach in Geneva NY.	+ Critical Mass originated in San Francisco in September of 1992.

Also, before the screening, and if people are into it, we'd like to do a collective reading of a children's Christmas story called ''[http://www.softskull.com/detailedbook.php?isbn=1-932360-55-7 Burn Christmas! Burn! by Brian Gage]'' in order to work out the rest of that angry Christmas sentiment. From the website: ''Burn, Christmas! Burn!! is a humorous Christmas book about Santa’s Elves who are tired of being third-rate drones in his oppressive sweatshop. Santa is greedy and old. Mrs. Claus is the crotchety and mean CFO. And Rudolph? He’s got a score to settle too. Years of backbreaking labor have finally done in the Elve's patience. They've reached boiling point. They're mad as hell and not going to take it anymore. What to do? Well, overthrow Christmas, of course.''

There is a specific focus on Southern Mexico in places such as Oaxaca and Chiapas. From the website: ''"For over 20 years, global economic forces have been dismantling public education in Mexico, but always in the constant shadow of popular resistance... Granito de Arena is the story of that resistance – the story of hundreds of thousands of public schoolteachers whose grassroots, non-violent movement took Mexico by surprise, and who have endured brutal repression in their 25-year struggle for social and economic justice in Mexico's public schools."'' '''Featuring''': Eduardo Galeano and Maude Barlow The film is approximately 60 minutes long. The film will be screened at St. Joe's. See below for more info.
