This week's stories:
This week we will hear the voices of some who have turned courage into social action in the service of social justice.
Robert F. and Mabel Williams, producers of Radio Free Dixie and the newspaper The Crusade and Radio Free Dixie, were important figures in the Black struggle for self-defense and self-determination in the United States from the 1950's through the 1970's. The following excerpt is from a forthcoming documentary produced by and available from The Freedom Archives, info@freedomarchives.org
Mary Agnes Lewis is an anthropologist in Oakland, California. She is a teacher, an intellectual, but above all an activist for social justice. She talks about her experiences as one of a handful of Black students at the University of California in the early 1960s who, of necessity, created an intellectual community of resistance.
On Thursday evening, December first, 1955, a tired seamstress became the mother of the modern-day civil rights movement when she refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery Alabama bus. Rosa Parks tells her story of what happened on the bus and in the days to follow in this piece from the Pacifica Radio Archives.
Sprouts is a weekly program produced in collaboration with community radio stations and independent producers across the country that features local radio production from many radio stations and local media groups. The program is offered free of charge to all radio stations. For information, or if you would like to feature your work on Sprouts, contact Ursula Ruedenberg at ursula@pacifica.org. |
