Hand held cell cam video of historic "Special Treat" Q&A session with Tim DeChristopher after 710pm May 17th 2013 NYC Theatrical Opening of documentary film, "Bidder 70".
Bidder 70 Director/Producers George and Beth Gage join self described "Anti-Government Activist" Tim DeChristopher onstage at Quad Cinema on W13th in NYC. Tim speaks freely on a range of topics relevant to activist causes, his experiences and his future plans, responding to several audience questions including one from Gasland and Gasland Part II director, Josh Fox.
DeChristopher famously and apparently spontaneously disrupted a December 19, 2008 US Bureau of Land Management auction that was poised to turn vast swaths of pristine Utah public land over to the hands of the oil extraction industry during the last months of George W. Bush presidency. Obama later cancelled the entire sale process and the land remains untouched but Tim was tried, convicted and jailed for 21 months in federal prison.
Tim DeChristopher is co-founder of the environmental group Peaceful Uprising.
See www.peacefuluprising.org/ He has recently been accepted by and plans on attending Harvard Divinity School.
