Steal This Radio
Much music and poetry in this week's show!
Mitchel Cohen recites his poem, "To Comrades Fallen", for Brad Will
and Susan Blake. Our friend Brad Will was murdered in Oaxaca Mexico
by right wing paramilitaries funded by the U.S. government one year
ago this week, and Susan Blake -- Long Island's most noted peace
organizer and WBAI radioactivist -- died of breast cancer that had
spread to her liver on October 2, 2007.
Mitchel also gives his picks for the WBAI radio (99.5 FM)
listener-member elections to the Local Station Board, and discusses
some of the troubles at that listener-sponsored commercial-free
Pacifica station.
And, sandwiched by much great music by Manu Chao, Anne Feeney, Dave
Rovics, and Phil Ochs, Mitchel reads Henry Miller's insights and
reminiscences about the doctrine of cleanliness. Mitchel ends with
another one of his own sarcastic poems "Be Sure to Wear A Condom
when You're Shooting Up (Stay at Home)". Don't go outside, don't do
ANYTHING, stay home and watch TV ....
