WMFO MEDFORD 91.5 FM (online worldwide at http://wmfo.org )
WEDNESDAY, May 31 8-9a.m. (yes, in the morning!)
David Barsamian's Alternative Radio with
Historian Howard Zinn:
Sacco & Vancetti
From New York to Denver, immigrants are again the target of xenophobes.
U.S. history has been marked by periodic outbursts of super-chauvinism. One
notorious example was the cased of the Italian immigrants Sacco and
Vanzetti in the 1920s. Their jailing on trumped-up charges and their
subsequent execution in Massachusetts sparked a huge national and
international uproar. On May Day especially they are remembered in story
and song all over the world.
Tune in also every Thursday morning at the same time (8-9am) for my local
edition of Alternative Radio, which has featured Noam Chomsky, Michael
Albert, Edward Said, Patricia Ireland, Eqbal Ahmad, and others.
