p2pnet news view Freedom | P2P:- A new online video channel broadcasting from London to promote Freedom for Tibet during the Beijing Olympics has been launched by Students for a Free Tibet, posts Tenzin in a p2pnet Reader’s Write, going on »»»
With all the Olympic actions for Tibet taking place and particularly the incredible success of the ‘opening’ banner action outside Beijing’s ‘Bird’s Nest’ stadium on Aug. 6th and subsequent media storm here in the UK, it took some time to get FT08.TV ready for prime time.
But with the dedicated help of lots of people, SFT’s new video channel is up and running, and filled with lots of must-see on-demand content, including inspiring Tibet activist video-profiles, action reports, video-blogs, and more.
We’re also airing a nightly Windhorse Report live from London with SFT leaders Tenzin Dorjee and Han Shan – a roundup of reports from Beijing and around the world during the Olympics, with breaking news about protests, call-in interviews with news-making activists, episodes of SFT-TV (the efforts of SFT’s global grassroots), and info and analysis about the situation on the ground in Tibet.
There will be more and more compelling content to watch every day and we’ll be improving the channel/website as we go (after all, this is but one small facet of our Olympic efforts right now). But please come check it out: surf around the many videos on the channel, or watch the stream (click on “Streaming Now” in the upper left-hand corner). Last but not least, you’re invited to submit video… check out the channel for more on what we’re looking for.
Please help spread the word about FT08.TV —- join the facebook group, blog about it, embed the videos, spam your address book – and of course, keep watching.
And don’t forget to visit SFT’s Olympics Campaign website: www.FreeTibet2008.org and SFT’s blog: www.blog.studentsforafreetibet.org for more news and analysis from the frontlines of the current global effort to make Olympic history for Tibet.

Says the FT2008 site »»»
With the Beijing Olympics bringing unprecedented attention to China, Tibetans and their supporters worldwide are working to expose the reality of the Chinese government’s brutal rule in Tibet and help win human rights and freedom for six million Tibetans. Students for a Free Tibet (SFT) is at the forefront of these efforts, and we’re determined to take nonviolent action worldwide to keep the Olympic spotlight on China’s brutal occupation of Tibet, and the inspiring nonviolent resistance of Tibetans and their supportesr worldwide.
FT08.TV is a 24-hour internet TV station, a one-stop news and analysis resource for Tibetans, Tibet supporters, and others concerned about human rights connected to (and during) the Beijing Olympics. FT08.TV will be broadcasting throughout the Games, and will hopefully stick around long after. In addition to protests in Beijing Games, there will be a mobilization of Tibetans and their supporters for demonstrations at Chinese Embassies and Consulates worldwide, and FT08.TV will report on this and much more.
Free Tibet 2008 Television [ FT08.TV ] is the companion video channel to SFT’s Olympics campaign website, www.FreeTibet2008.org
