Activism See other Activism Articles Title: 1600 See Russo Movie In Chicago, Next Screenings in NY and NH This past weekend, Aaron Russo’s movie received enthusiastic ovations from combined crowds numbering more than 1600. Last Thursday evening, “America…From Freedom to Fascism" played at downtown Chicago’s upscale independent bookstore, Transitions Bookplace. On Friday night, writer and director Russo personally presented the 4-minute movie trailer to a packed and energized crowd of 500 at the “Kinetic Playground”, a nightclub that Russo owned and operated years ago when he was involved with the music production side of the entertainment industry. It was during this period that Russo brought the famous rock group Led Zeppelin to America and managed the career of actress/performer Bette Midler. Watch the PREVIEW On Saturday, Russo’s film played to about 700 people who gathered at the historic ARCADA Theatre in Chicago’s western suburb of St. Charles. Following the showing, Russo was greeted by throngs of well-wishers thanking him for having the courage to make the movie and seeking his autograph on the WTP brochures that had been distributed at the event. On Sunday, the movie screened to a full theater in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where 300 people again expressed their strong appreciation for the movie. Below are some pictures from the Chicago event. Please visit the new WTP Congress blog web site for more photos, audio blogs from the events and additional content about the nationwide screenings of Aaron Russo's movie. http://wtpcongress.blogspot.com.

SUNDAY, March 26 1 PM to 5 PM O'Neil Theatres / Apple Tree Cinemas 12 16 Orchard View Drive Londonderry, NH 03053 Summer Release To Theatres Is Possible We want to remind everyone that WTP is engaged in continuing discussions with Aaron Russo regarding the potential for the Foundation to play a significant role in developing a financing and distribution model that will bring this high-impact film to theaters and living rooms nationwide this summer. The Foundation has labored long and arduously since 1999, to bring these issues of constitutional abuse to the attention of the American public and to secure a remedy to those abuses. Indeed the Foundation’s work forms the central nexus of, and is showcased by Russo’s documentary. As we wrote in our last email, we believe this single, fact-filled, educational documentary about the steady erosion of our Freedoms, if seen by millions of Americans, has the potential to develop the pro-active, non-violent, mass movement needed to restore the Constitution. Proceeding on this premise, the Foundation is asking those that have the capacity and potential interest in participating with funding the distribution of this film via a tax-deductible Foundation donation. Please contact us via our on-line form. Those having an interest in what may yet be the most exciting, high-profile and strategically significant project this Foundation has yet to execute will be contacted once the details regarding the business plan, project budget, and legal, financial and accounting controls are ready for examination by potential donors and investors. “YES, PLEASE CONTACT ME. I may be interested in making a tax-deductible financial contribution toward the cost of distributing Aaron Russo’s film, "America…From Freedom to Fascism.” The next stops on the advance screening schedule are: GLENS FALLS, New York -- This Saturday, March 25 LONDONDERRY, New Hampshire -- This Sunday, March 26 LONG ISLAND/COMMACK, New York -- Saturday, April 1 FAIRFIELD, Connecticut -- Sunday, April 2 SAN FRANCISCO, California, Saturday, April 8. Please remember, although the events are FREE and open to the public, the Foundation is expending substantial sums of money to bring this film to cities across America. If you attend a screening, please be prepared to help us with a donation to help us recover our costs and help fund the ongoing operations of the Foundation, which include the historic Right-to-Petition lawsuit, currently under appeal at the United States Court of Appeals in Washington.
