Listeners and unpaid staff fight to make KPFA the people’s voice PDF Print E-mail
by Reginald James   
Wednesday, 26 March 2008

The meeting, held Friday at Eastside Cultural Center in Oakland and sponsored by POCC: Block Report Radio and the First Voice Apprenticeship Program, was also supposed to have been broadcast live on the apprenticeship program's weekly show Full Circle, but was yanked off the air by the "powers that be" at KPFA.

Twenty-one long months ago, young Brother Asa Sullivan was assassinated by San Francisco police, followed barely two weeks later by the police shooting death of Brother Oliver "Big O" Lefiti in the Mission district. Asa's mom, Kathy Espinosa, and Nicole Guerra, mother of "Little Asa," now 7 years old, still wait for justice.

According to press reports, officers were responding to a neighbor's complaint of possible trespassers, yet Asa and his friend were there with the tenants' permission.

In the year 776 B.C., a religious festival was held by the ancient Greeks to honor their chief god, Zeus.

The games of the ancient Olympiad included foot races, boxing, wresting, javelin, discus throwing, horseback riding and trumpeters. Male athletes competed in the nude. Women were prohibited from participating in or viewing the games.
