Zeitgeist Media Festival Flyers

Our good friend Sopphey from the OccupyMcallen movement has created some wonderful fliers for our upcoming Zeitgeist Media Festival on Saturday. Please share them with friends and family and invite them to the event!


A New Reality Show: Culture In Decline

Zeitgeist film series creator and Zeitgeist Movement founder Peter Joseph is currently producing a new video series titled Culture In Decline. The first episode, titled "What Democracy?" was recently released, and examines the nature and underlying myths of democratic government in the context of a monetary system and dominance seeking society. Viewers of the Zeitgeist film series will notice many of the same themes, references and lines of thought in this episode, but with a narrower focus on the farce that is democracy. Featuring live action skits and on the street interviews, this episode, and likely the series, will provide for a much more digestible format for the average viewer that delivers critical information, analysis and satire. If you enjoyed this episode, please share it with those who might otherwise not be able to watch a feature length documentary all at once. I, personally, am looking forward to future shows. Thank you for your time and attention, and I hope to see you at our upcoming Zeitgeist Media Festival event on Saturday!

Planning Our Rio Grande Valley Zeitgeist Movement Media Festival

The global Zeitgeist Media Festival event is approaching fast, and we are planning and preparing our event right here in the Rio Grande Valley. The Zeitgeist Media Festival is a celebration of art, music, advocacy and communication. We want to use the power of art and expression to help make the world a better place for all people. We are working with local performers, artists, poets and organizations to help spread a message to our community in a way that more formal settings are generally unable to. In addition to our message, we want to encourage giving back to our community by asking attendees to donate non-perishable food items to local groups like the Food Bank of the Rio Grande Valley and the local chapter of Food Not Bombs. While we recognize that we cannot rely upon charity to resolve the root problems, we do recognize the need to reduce what suffering we can while we can.

If you would like to help us organize and plan this event, participate or volunteer in any way, please contact us, and we will be happy to have your assistance. Thank you for your time and attention, and for joining us in our effort to help make the world a better place for all people.
