Coming to TV on September 8: The ACLU Freedom Files

"The critical work that the ACLU is doing is the stuff of real drama. These are regular people, people who could be a neighbor, who have found themselves fighting to defend their constitutionally-guaranteed rights. These are important and powerful stories that we need to tell."

Robert Greenwald,
Producer
Unconstitutional and Outfoxed

Stay Tuned
You'll be hearing more from us next week on how you can help make a difference on the Patriot Act and get a free DVD, so stay tuned.

ACLU members and supporters ask me regularly how we can strip away the headlines, sound bytes and easy clichés about our work and show the world the effect of civil liberties on real people every day. I'm thrilled to tell you about a new television program we're launching that does exactly that, The ACLU Freedom Files.

With this series, we have an unprecedented opportunity to capture public attention and teach and mobilize new audiences around the pressing civil liberties issues that threaten people all across America.

Developed and created in partnership with award-winning film producer Robert Greenwald (Unconstitutional, Outfoxed), The ACLU Freedom Files, produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Jeremy Kagan, is a series of ten 30-minute episodes featuring real clients and the attorneys who defend them, as well as well-known actors, activists and comedians.

You can preview our new series right now at http://www.aclu.tv/.

3. Good on ya! They deserve our support more now than ever.

For the logo - I right-clicked and saved-as on one of their site pages --but you have to find a page where the image is the whole image and not in pieces.
