[creative-radio] Youth Radio Initiative - Lao People's Democratic Republic

 

*Youth Radio Initiative - Lao People's Democratic Republic (PDR)*
This initiative centres around a youth-led weekly broadcast from a radio
station covering Luang Prabang province. Once a month, the youth radio team
piles onto a rented bus and heads to remote corners of the mountainous
province to perform plays and puppet shows that highlight, for example, the
dangers of preventable diseases like measles.

[creative-radio] Refugee Delegation Tour to Bayern - Close all Refugee Lagers and Isolation Camps! Abolish the Lager Regime!!]]

 

Refugee Delegation Tour to Bayern - Close all Refugee Lagers and Isolation
Camps! Abolish the Lager Regime!!

Fellow Comrades,

As part of our solidarity to Self-Organisation of Refugees in Bayern,
Activist of The VOICE Refugee Forum together with Refugees from Bayern
would emback on a preparation Tour for a special Delegation to Visit
Bayern before the end of January.

The preparatory Group intend to Visit the Lager in Wallersdorf, Boboarack,
Deggendorf and Augsburg amongst the Various Lagers in Bayern.

The Solidarity is to compliment the Food Boycotting and Hunger strike
embacked upon by Refugees in the past Months and the way forward from the
Position paper signed at the last Conference on Discrimination in Jena on
18th December 2010.

Critical evaluation would be on the Personal situation of the Refugee and
how it connects their reason of Flight to Germany as well as the Horrors
they are faced with in the Democratic Germany.

The Tour is also a means to Mobilise and Orientate more Refugees on why
the need to reject all these injustice and their right to Freedom anywhere
in the World.

We are bent on making Lager a History in Germany.

We say
NO to ISOLATION CAMPS
NO to RESIDENZPLICHT
NO to DEPORTATION
NO to POLICE BRUTALITY

[creative-radio] Canadian-designed portable FM radio station that fits in a briefcase

http://www.cbc.ca/arts/media/story/2010/12/29/portable-radio-africa.html#ixzz19bWcHXF7

A Kenyan Canadian has put together a portable FM radio station that fits in
a briefcase that he hopes to use to reach remote parts of Africa.

Peter Onguti helped develop and is bringing to Africa the 18-kilo FM radio
kit that can be powered by solar, battery or conventional electricity

He got the idea for a portable radio station after Kenya's last election,
when violence erupted across the country. People in rural areas especially
were experiencing an information blackout.

Onguti turned to a Canadian friend and business partner to design a portable
radio station with good range.

*'It's just that I want people to have access to information.'**—Kenyan
Canadian Peter Onguti*

"I asked him — he's a telecommunication engineer — if he could come up with
something which was suitable for this market, especially Kenya and the rest
of Africa," Onguti told CBC News.

Then he used his own savings to build and market the portable radio
stations.

The government of South Sudan will be using about a dozen of the units to
educate rural voters in the upcoming referendum on separation from North
Sudan.

And dozens more are being used to broadcast health and education programming
in Western Africa.

Depending on the unit, the stations can broadcast anywhere from 30 to 100
kilometres.

"You can do a lot with this unit, not necessarily just focus on war and
violence and such," Onguti says.

He envisions his portable radio stations in use all over Africa. Radio is a
good choice for Africa, where many people are illiterate and cannot afford
television.

He has yet to turn a profit on sales, with units ranging from $10,000 to
$70,000, but that doesn't discourage him.

"It's not about the money actually — it's just about information, that is
the key drive for me. It's just that I want people to have access to
information.

[creative-radio] PrisonAct) The VOICE Call - Urgent, ALARM! from our threatened activist - Mbolo Yufanyi fights against his arrest warrant + Video doku

 

PrisonAct) The VOICE Call - Urgent, ALARM! from our threatened activist -
Mbolo Yufanyi fights against his arrest warrant + Video doku

New developments and Update concerning the arrest warrant:
Please join to protest by writing and spreading the fax campaign and
support us to stop the continous intimidation of Mbolo without further
threat of imprisonment.

Dear friends and comrades, this is a message from our threatened activist
Mbolo Yufanyi.

"On the 14th of December, I was visited by the court Bailiff Johann Jöns
of the district court of Berlin Neukölln. He told me that the next visit
he will make to me will be with the Police and this time, it will be to
arrest me. He threatened me that this could also happen even on Christmas
Eve".

ALARM. Protest Rally and Vigil: When? Day X (day of my arrest).

Where? Where I will be brought to. The prison where I will be brought to,
be it in Berlin or elsewhere. You will be informed by us when that
happens.

„I stay by my words. I will not pay for my daughter being taken away from
me by Germany"

Mbolo Yufanyi.

>>END<<

Our Community is under threat - Mbolo Yufanyi needs your Solidarity!
The VOICE Refugee Forum in Germany:

As we all have been promptly informed by the above mail from Mbolo Yufanyi
and previous releases from The VOICE Refugee Forum, we should really
reckon that he now faces the prospect of being arrested at any time from
now on. We should therefore be prepared to stage a series of actions as
soon as they carry out their threat. Good that we have been warned so we
should be ready to act should anything happen to him. Others should see
how they can support our solidarity call and the demands of Mbolo Yufanyi.

We, activists of The VOICE Refugee Forum are in Solidarity with Mbolo
Yufanyi's demands to protest with him against every threat of his arrest
and imprisonment and we are against the racist decision by the district
court of Goettingen and the regional court of Braunschweig to separate him
from his daughter since 2007. The arrest and imprisonment of Mbolo is also
a threat to the harmonies in our international communities and families in
Germany and this has been and is still the goal of Mbolo's fight, to keep
these Communities together. Many of us have been separated from our
beloved ones and Mbolo Yufanyi is the first to carry out the disobedience
of a racist court decision, against the backdrop of facing jail terms.
This is a test for our different Communities.

What we stand to gain!
We will fight and campaign to open the German prison gates to free the
victims of racist imprisonments in Germany.

Mbolo will resist the arrest and we join his call to protest and fight for
his freedom if arrested, and also for the freedom of all victims of racist
imprisonment and against the racial profiling of the German authorities.
If they touch Mbolo, they touch us all.

We call on all activists, friends, progressive men and women and groups to
join us in our protest to denounce the ongoing threats of racist arrest
and imprisonment of one of our leading activists.

We are in consultation with his lawyer and we shall be keeping you abreast
with any new developments regarding this situation.

Please spread this information as wide as possible and ask your friends
and colleagues to join us and fight for Mbolo Yufanyi's right to freedom
and to be a father to his daughter whom he has not seen regularly for
years now. His daughter and present family need him.

Please join to protest by writing and spreading the fax campaign and
support us stop the continous intimitation of Mbolo without further threat
of imprisonment.

We protest the Racist elements of the court case and decisions of 2007
that took away the „Sorgerecht" as a father from Mbolo Yufanyi.

Concerning the arrest warrant

New developments concerning the arrest warrant against a black father and
activist who wants to be a father for his daughter, but is not allowed to.

After several protests against the arrest of the black father and activist
took place, the arrest warrant, which was issued against him in 2007, was
transferred further to another bailiff. The court executor (JVHS a. GV)
Mr. Johann Jöns has summoned Mr. Yufanyi Movuh Mbolo for the 02/12/2010 in
order to enforce a statutory declaration, this time without giving his
official email address or fax number. The reason is probably to avoid
further electronic protests and fax campaigns. The court executor is in
possession of a warrant if Mr. Yufanyi Movuh does not appear on the above
date.

Mr. Yufanyi Movuh will not go to the appointment of the new court executor
and will continue to protest against the racist decisions of the District
Court of Göttingen and Braunschweig Higher Regional Court. The two courts
withdrew the right to custody of his daughter Anna Nulia Yufanyi Movuh
Nkume from him. The decision was based on a claim (also based on a racist
stereotype) of his White German ex-wife, Kerstin Gierth, who claims that
Mr. Yufanyi wanted to kidnap his daughter and take her with him to his
native country Cameroon (in spite of his studies and residence here in
Germany).

Mr. Yufanyi has instructed a lawyer in Berlin, to fight for the rights of
his daughter. Nevertheless, his warrant of arrest still stands as a result
of his refusal to pay the legal fees of his ex-wife.

To continue the support of Mr. Yufanyi Movuh, we now focus our protest
faxes and emails to the President of the District Court of Neukölln:
Wolfgang Schollmeier.

We thank all those who have protested against the arrest of the activists
Yufanyi Movuh. The protest has been effective – that is why he is not in
prison. We ask for further support of Mr. Yufanyi Movuh's father-daughter
campaign for his rights and the rights of his daughter.

Because we defend the rights of Mr. Yufanyi as a father, we call on all to
send mails and faxes to the executing officer, JVHS a. GV Johann Jöns, to
protest against the arrest of Yufanyi Movuh Mbolo.

Please send protest faxes and emails to:
the President of the District Court of Neukölln: Wolfgang Schollmeier with
a copy of the fax to: the_voice_berlin@gmx.de, The VOICE Berlin.

Sample Letter

The President of the District Court Neukölln
Karl-Marx-Straße 77-79
12043 Berlin
Phone: 030 / 90191-0
Fax: 030 / 90191-122

E-mail: poststelle@secuted by one of your court executors, Mr. Johann
Jöns, who has already summoned Mr. Yufanyi Movuh for the 02/12/2010, with
the aim of forcing an affidavit for Mr. Yufanyi Movuh.

I / we find it unacceptable that not only the custody of Mr. Yufanyi for
his daughter has been withdrawn, but also he is punished for not accepting
the racist decision of the District Court and the Court of Appeal. For
more than three years, his daughter has had little contact with him and
since July 2007 the mother of Mr. Yufanyi's daughter violated all
regulations of both courts by staying over two years in Mexico and now,
after her return, she does not want that he stays in real contact with his
daughter and that he assumes responsibility. The right of the child to
have contacts to both parents is clearly violated here, although the court
claims to have decided in the best interests of the child. Mr. Yufanyi was
granted a one day per week "right to visit" from his daughter. Since three
years, this possibility is undermined by the mother. He has already
instructed a lawyer from Berlin to fight for the rights of his daughter.
Nevertheless, he is being threatened with an arrest warrant for the
refusal to accept lawyer fees of his ex-wife.

I / we stand behind Mr. Yufanyi's decision. For the possibility to take
responsibilities as a father and to protect his daughter's right to have a
father, both need the opportunity to see each other whenever they want. As
a father, Mr. Yufanyi is an important person and reference for Anna Nulia
Yufanyi Movuh to convey to her the African part of her identity.

It is only logical, that Mr. Yufanyi cannot pay the costs of a trial that
denied these rights to him and his daughter.

If Mr. Yufanyi is arrested, I / we will do everything politically possible
to maintain his right as a father and the right of his daughter.

Therefore, I / we ask you not to allow the warrant of arrest under your
jurisdiction to be implemented and rather to advocate for its repeal and
for the rights of Mr. Yufanyi and his daughter.

Yours sincerely,

***

[creative-radio] Reginald Fessenden: The Forgotten Father of Broadcast Radio, East Bolton, Quebec, BROUGHT VOICE TO THE AIRWAVES

The Forgotten Father of Radio
REGINALD FESSENDEN BROUGHT VOICE TO THE AIRWAVES—ONLY TO LOSE CONTROL OF HIS
INVENTION
BY WILLIAM S. ZUILL

http://www.americanheritage.com/articles/magazine/it/2001/1/2001_1_40_print.shtml

[excerpt]

THE INVENTOR'S WIFE STOOD WITH HER ARMS SPREAD across the filing cabinets,
trying to cover the open drawers as three men struggled to remove the files
they contained. She knew she couldn't win, but she thought it might somehow
help her husband legally if the men had to use force. The men pulled her
away and started loading boxes. Then, with about a third of the files gone,
they began to relax their guard. She seized a moment when they all were
outside the office to slam the door and lock it. More time gained.

It was December 1910, and the woman who had been reduced to playing cat and
mouse with the movers was the wife of the man who had discovered how to
broadcast words. His name was Reginald Fessenden, and he deserves, as much
as anyone else, to be called the father of radio. Yet instead of making him
rich, Fessenden's inventive genius brought him mostly frustration.

For all the tumult of his later years, Fessenden enjoyed a peaceful
middle-class upbringing after his birth in East Bolton, Quebec, in 1866. The
boy's brilliance showed itself early, and in 1884 he became a master at
Bishop's College School, in Quebec, while attending Bishop's College there.
Before completing his degree, Fessenden took a job as headmaster (and only
teacher) at a small private school in Bermuda. While there he fell in love
with Helen Trott, the farmer's daughter he would later marry. (At the same
time, this writer's grandfather became engaged to Helen's elder sister
Eliza, whom he later married.)

Helen Trott went everywhere with the six-foot-tall Canadian, even when he
floated on his back in the sea, working out mathematical problems about
electricity. Years afterward, he would write: "One could miss a great deal
out of one's life and still be happy remembering those [carriage] drives
back after a dance, along the shore of Harrington Sound, and the moonlight,
the semi-tropical air and the smell of the jasmine flowers."

Fessenden's stay in Bermuda lasted two years. His family hoped he would
enter the church, like his father, an Anglican minister. Instead he decided
to go to New York City, armed with a few introductions, and try to either
find a job with the great Thomas Edison or make a living writing for
magazines. He was not yet married; Thaddeus Trott did not want a sonin-law
who admitted to holding the extraordinary notion that voices could be sent
great distances without wires.

New York was a disappointment. Fessenden sold only a few magazine articles
and repeatedly failed to get a job with Edison. Persistence finally paid off
in 1885, when he was given the post of assistant tester for the Edison
Machine Works as it lay electrical cables under New York's streets. During
his lunch hours he studied electrical theory and analytical mechanics and
worked out ways to do the testing faster. Before long he rose to inspecting
engineer.
