tempestuous radio 4.3.10

hi folks,

i gave up on last weekend's show cuz we were having technical difficulties. i decided to save all the awesome material i had planned and try again for 4.3.10.

i'm still on the topic of prison. gonna play a couple clips from folks talking about prison and the prison industrial complex- mumia abu jamal and angela davis. i'll read some from this awesome howard zinn essay on economic/class divisions in the united states, cuz prison and economic class are intimately intertwined. and more... readings, thoughts, rants, etc.

updates on the tempest

hi-

no tempestuous radio next week, i'm out of town for a few days. be prepared for a super stellar tempestuous radio on march 6th. dunno what it'll be about, but rest assured, it will be fascinating.

i just archived my last two shows. sorry for the delay in getting the show from feb. 13th up. i had a busy week. find them under "program archives."

the GREEN SCARE

hey folks- tonight i'll be talking about the green scare. it's pretty messed up. tune in to hear all about it from 6-8, saturday.

don't forget to swing by the district tonight (downtown, across congress from club congress) for FRC's benefit party!!!

also- archived my last show. talked about DIY with a couple local DIYers- hannah from project close knit and eric from dry river. it was lots of fun.

on the MOVE pt. 2

dear universe,

what a shame that the fm was down during my last show. please universe, please never let it happen like that again. the good people of tucson deserve better.

dear frc junkies-

i am archiving the show at this very instant, so look for it, download it, listen, learn, tolerate my babbling drone. also- i realized after i played it that the krs 1 song at the very end of the show was offensive on a variety of levels, even if it was cool that he talked about freeing mumia. but i played it anyway, cuz like i said, it was after the fact.

talking about immigration

tonight i'll be talking about the role of immigrants in the last 100 years or so, paying particular attention to mexican immigration. lotsa focus on news reports about oppressive anti-immigration policies in the last couple years. last weekend i attended the anti-immigration march in phoenix and witnessed children pepper sprayed. i'll be talking about that tonight as well. if you can't catch it tonight, look for the archived show under "program archives."
