In the late 1960s and the '70s there were street sheets in the hippy and activist gettos, mostly printed out on mimeographs. There was no internet, email, in those days. These sheets told the pertinent news that was happening in that community. They were passed out and around and hung in stores and co-ops. This gave rise to small community papers that expanded to rags like the Chicago Reader. It also birthed small radio stations. Of course, the successful ones became the media we are fighting now. But, in the age of the internet we have all the tools we need to make our own digital street sheets, "radio" broadcasts, and zines, aside from the google owned and other tech monopolists, even if, and particularly if the "POWERS that be" decide to throttle all the outlets. with fees and licenses.
