the function of mainstream and alternative moving-image culture in
determining public understandings of and actions regarding recent and
ongoing Bush Administration practices, including the international "war
on
terrorism," USA Patriot Acts I & II, anti-feminist legislation, newly
proposed welfare, health care, and social security reforms, Supreme
