If you can’t make it to Denver, never fear: You can watch the conference live from your home, your office, your favorite Internet café … whatever works for you. Free Press is partnering with Free Speech TV to livestream various conference sessions and plenaries. Democracy Now! will also host the stream on its site.
During breaks in coverage, Free Speech TV will present interviews with speakers — including comedian Jamie Kilstein, Colorlines.com news editor Jamilah King, Nation correspondent John Nichols and Middle East reporter Vivian Salama — in our conference studio.
Here are the sessions we will feature in our livestream. [For BFIA, all times have been converted to Central Time.]
