"American Blackout" Meets Sarasota

No slappin' happening at the entrance of this building. "American Blackout" director Ian Inaba and U.S. Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney take some questions from the press while supporters chant in the background ahead of a screening of the film in Sarasota. There was suppose to be a planned protest in front of the office of Sarasota Congresswoman Katherine Harris (Harris, who served as Florida's Secretary of State in 2000, ratified Florida's vote for George W. Bush) along with a pro-Harris counterprotest, but that didn't quite pan out. Still, Sarasota Film Festival honoree Robert Altman took it upon himself to take a jab at Harris later that night from the stage at the closing ceremonies.
