Review for MEDIA ISLAND INTERNATIONAL DTD 0391, Olympia, WA, USA
Media Island operates a networking space and community alternative library in downtown Olympia Washington. Locally our location serves as a nexus for community organizations to mingle, have meetings and work parties. We also run a low power fm licensed radio station which broadcasts as KOWA 106.5. While operating the networking center and radio station we also work on national issues and international issues through our website, our fiscal sponsorships and conferences. Currently we are working on funding a human rights accompanier to Honduras, supporting Black Mesa Indigenous Resistance, are a partner with national and local groups on Latin American Solidarity issues and immigrant rights issues, work on front line indigenous support, environmental causes and social justice activities.

The part of Media Island's mission which seeks to help increase the flow of under-published information is appropriate given the increasing corporate control of media.
