Today we’ll talk to Katy Parker from the ACLU (not pictured above), about the recent settlement with the City of Asheville over last years May 1st demonstration, and the changes to city policies regarding demonstrations. Read the Citizen-Times story here.
We’ll talk to Micah Lee about the fast-growing Asheville chapter of Indymedia, and we’ll get a report from last weeks “Patriots Meeting” in West Asheville. Check out Asheville Indymedia here.
From the Weekly Radio Address archives (from weeklyradioaddress.com), we’ll hear from Lyndon B. Johnson, and how in 1965 we needed to “stay the course” on his now, mostly forgotten “War on Huts.”
We’ll coax Nelson from the Simpsons to once again say “Ha-Ha”, this time about the resignation of Attorney General Alberto “Francisco Franco” Gonzalez.
This local news and public affairs show focuses on underreported information and encourages civic activism. Tune in live 6-7 pm Monday (followed by the radio edition of the Asheville Global Report at 7 pm), catch the 1 pm Tuesday rebroadcast, or stream or podcast.
