[creative-radio] Programm: Program: Refugees have a Voice - Refugee Conference in Stuttgart

Program: Refugees have a Voice - Refugee Conference in Stuttgart

The participation of refugees is crucial for the struggle against
discrimination and injustice. In Baden-Württemberg
this process now is getting started as refugee communities are building up
in the different refugee camps.

We refuse arbitrary measures, hatred and double standard treatment of
refugees in Germany.

Refugees are invited to exchange their experience and commitments to
strengthen the ongoing refugee community
networking and self organization in camps as a core focus in the conference.

No one can tell the story better than the direct victims. Refugees are in
the best position to tell their stories from "why
they are here" and "what they are confronted with in this society".

Although individual refugees may be faced with problems seeming different
in nature, the whole situation boils down
to the German Lager politics that isolates, demoralizes and traumatizes.

The refugee politics in Baden-Württemberg is worse compared to most
federal states in Germany. Effecting change
requires sincere solidarity and a strong position of refugees. Otherwise
compromise will remain the order of the day.

Solidarity is the weapon and refugees are calling for sincere solidarity
with the ongoing campaign against camps, food
packages, restrictions to the freedom of movement and other forms of
discrimination and injustice against refugees.

[creative-radio] New Book: "Hitler's Radio War"

You probably remember Roger Tidy from a few years ago when he occasionally
contributed to Clandestine Radio Watch .

He just published a book "Hitler's Radio War".

[...]

Martin Schöch, Eisenach

------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht / Forwarded message -------
Datum: Wed, 2 Feb 2011 10:44:55 -0800 (PST)
Von: Roger Tidy
Betreff: New Book: "Hitler's Radio War"

Hello

I have recently written a book entitled "Hitler's Radio War", which has just
been published. This book, based on archival research, is the story of the
external service of the wartime German radio (the RRG) and the
'personalities' who worked for it.

Many of the chapters are about clandestine radio.
The German Geheimsender covered include:
The New British Broadcasting Station; Workers' Challenge; the Christian
Peace Movement station; Radio Caledonia; Lenin's Old Guard; For Russia,
the Militant Union of Russian Nationalists; Station Debunk; Free nIndia
Radio, Free Moslem Radio and National Congress Radio (broadcsating to
India); and many more broadcasting to such countries as France,
Poland,Yugoslavia,Greece and the Middle East. There is also a list of
all known German clandestine stations from the Second World War period,
and a secret organisation chart of Buro Concordia. I believe that the
book is the most comprehensive account of German clandestine radio ever
published.

In addition there are chapters on Lord Haw-Haw, Mary of Arnhem and the
two women known as Axis Sally, as well as new information about
Kurtzwellensender Lil Malene.

The book, which is published in London by Robert Hale Ltd., can be
ordered from www.halebooks.com or from any reputable online bookstore.

Best wishes

[creative-radio] Statement on Refugee Self Organization in Lagers by Rex Osa “Refugees have a Voice”

Refugee Conference in Stuttgart - Statement on Refugee Self Organization
in Lagers by Rex Osa "Refugees have a Voice"

http://thevoiceforum.org/node/1963

For years, Refugees have been actively involved in the struggles against
injustices imposed on them by the European Government with Germany taking
the Lead. In Baden Wurttemberg, little is yet to be seen about refugees
been active in the struggle. Just in the past months, refugees in Baden
Wurttemberg realized and acknowledged the strength in networking
especially against the lager system. In the course to further strengthen
the mobilization for Refugees' self-Organization, a conference with title
"Refugees have a Voice" is planned for March 12, 2011 in Stuttgart, Baden
Wurttemberg.

Refugees are responsible for the general preparation and organization of
this Conference. Speakers are chosen from our sphere and Refugee Activist
from other German States are invited to share their long years of
experiences in the struggle through exchanges and join us to formulate
better strategies to strengthen the ongoing protest actions in Baden
Wurttemberg. The core objective of the Conference will be stressed on
building Refugee Communities with priorities in acknowledging that we are
the best persons to tell our own stories from why we are here and what we
are confronted with in the system. Because without us as practical
victims, compromise will continually be celebrated while the main problems
of discrimination, racism and stigmatization propagated through a
beautiful face seasonal antiracist activism remains the daily order.

Reasons for Our struggles…

Although individual or specific situation in Lagers may seem different in
Nature all over Germany, the Situations of every refugee boils down to the
German Apartheid concept of isolation, exclusion and total control of
those seen as unwanted in this society. The values of the so called
unwanted guests are identified with being accommodated in Lagers located
either at the edge of the Community or in the middle of nowhere, striped
off all rights to privacy and choice, restricted from exercising the right
to move freely and availability of limited medical attention, just to name
a few among other repressive mechanisms.

The State projects Refugees as enemies of the Society who must be left
defenseless while a crusade of systematic destruction goes on unabated.
Their daily lives are complemented with instrumental hatred,
discrimination, total control and institutionalized racism. The lager as
the central instrument of the repression is nothing short from Segregation
Ghettos beautifully made by name of Asylum homes. The Lager mentality is
reminiscent of the old times of slavery, colonialism and nationalism, a
strategy to keep the so called bad eggs far from the normal Society to
facilitate identification, control and deportation. Continuous repressive
cultures are imposed on us, to frighten, traumatize and psychologically
destroy us in other to sustain the German culture of dominance and
superiority.

The whole repression has even brain-washed many of us who are now made to
see the different available ways to survive as the only possibility. We do
not even know who to trust anymore. i.e. the Good or Bad amongst the
Social workers, the Police or otherwise. In many cases, the social workers
become the major horror to the Victimized Refugees. The German Asylum
politics is a contradiction to the UN Convention on refugee protection
creating well meditated loop holes for their administrative Districts and
departments to enforce arbitrary decrees.

Enough is enough from institutionalized lies and mockery. Knowing the
truth of what it is costing to run the whole mechanism of control is a
right to every German. It costs the state far more to deport, fortify
boarder Regimes and enforce the repressive forces than it cost to allow us
the freedom guaranteed by international standards.

By self organization, the deeds of the state would be made known to the
Society, Refugees will be able to keep the Authorities' on serious check,
Refugees will be able to know their rights to resist any form of
repression and institutionalized lies and mockery, Refugees would have the
guts to always ask the Question "Why" which commits officials to lying in
defense of their practices of injustice.

Community networking in Lagers is intended to redirect Refugees' attention
to the lager as the central base for all the repression, analyze the need
for us refugees to believe in our potentials and bridge the gap between
the repression we face in this so-called "democratic Germany" and our
basic reason of flight because, "we are here because you destroyed our
Countries".

We demand the Closure of all Lagers

We demand the abolition of racial Segregating Laws

We demand freedom and dignity for all including Refugees.

[creative-radio] Reality Radio: Telling True Stories in Sound

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Jay Allison, TRANSOM.org
Date: 26 January 2011 07:53
Subject: NEW RADIO SPECIAL - Reality Radio: Telling True Stories in Sound

TRANSOM.org

* NEW RADIO SPECIAL - Reality Radio: Telling True Stories in Sound *

A few months ago I emceed an evening of radio storytelling at WGBH in
Boston, sponsored by the Association of Independents in Radio. The evening
was based on the book "Reality Radio: Telling True Stories in Sound,"
edited by John Biewen and Alexa Dilworth, and featured riffs by Ira Glass,
The Kitchen Sisters, and me.

Ira told a hopeful story about what a bad radio producer he was, even after
seven years of doing it. Nikki Silva and Davia Nelson explained how they
befriend such a grand variety of strangers in telling their stories, and I
talked about documenting our community in 60-second bursts of sound over
the course of ten years. All our spiels were based on material we created
for Transom, which ended up in John and Alexa's book.

Viki Merrick at Atlantic Public Media (Transom's home) produced the
hour-long special and you can find it on the PRX. If you're a station, you
can air it or fundraise around it, since it's a celebration of what we do
in public radio.

[creative-radio] Job related to disaster and means of communcation: BBC World Service Trust and I

BBC World Service Trust and Internews Europe Consortium recently posted their job advertisement for Head of Project, Infoasaid which may be of interest to colleagues in this list as it requires understanding of disaster and means of communications and information.

JOB: Head of Project, Infoasaid
BBC World Service Trust and Internews Europe Consortium, London
Location: London, UK
Last Date: January 30, 2011

Ref.514648
BBC World Service Trust and Internews Europe Consortium
9-month contract
London

When crisis or disaster strikes, people need information just as much as they need shelter, food, water and safety. The fact is, communication with disaster-affected communities can increase the effectiveness of humanitarian responses and in turn, save lives. With that thinking in mind, the BBC World Service Trust and Internews have been awarded a grant to provide support to aid agencies, improving their capacity to respond to the information needs of populations affected by disaster.

As Head of Project, youâ€™ll manage the successful delivery of this high profile humanitarian media assistance initiative. Youâ€™ll need to establish excellent working relationships with a wide range of senior figures within the humanitarian relief community, as well as collate, coordinate and manage knowledge from two distinct work streams. This will mean building the capacity and preparedness of aid agencies to respond to the information and communication needs of affected populations during the important early phase of response. Alongside this, youâ€™ll work in partnership with aid agencies to inform and support their two-way communication with affected populations in the field.

A role as high profile as this demands significant experience working in the field of humanitarian relief, preferably with a deep understanding of media and how communication with affected populations has evolved. Youâ€™ll also need demonstrable partnership or stakeholder management skills, including highly developed negotiating, influencing and networking abilities. A background in project management and a track record of delivering results to agreed timetables and budgets will of course be essential.
