BlueLatinos.org PSA asks Dobbs to stop paranoid rhetoric

Brian R. — Thu, 21 Apr 2005 19:36:09 +0000

Here is a wonderful PSA [Public Service Announcement] mp3 from BlueLatinos.org. It’s a message to Lou Dobbs, host of CNN’s show “Lou Dobbs Tonight”, asking him to cease his “anti-immigrant reporting and race baiting commentary”. If you’d like to do something about this goto BlueLatinos.org and sign the petition to tell Dobb’s “Your Fired!”. If the situation wasn’t bad enough already California Governor Arnold supposedly said by accident recently, “Close the borders in California and all across Mexico and in the United States…” To learn more I highly recomend you see the film Wetback: The Undocumented Documentary from Director Arturo Perez Torres. I saw it recently at the Full Frame Documentary Festival here in Durham, NC and it was very moving.

Podcast Public Service Announcements

Brian R. — Mon, 07 Mar 2005 20:37:35 +0000

Today I podcast the first PSA (Public Service Announcement) here at AudioActivism.org. I hope to continue to provide this FREE service to great causes everywhere. If you have a PSA contact me.

Is this cool? Do you mind having a PSA in your podcast? I think AudioActivism.org and PSAs go together like peanut butter and chocolate! I’m not making any money by this and I’ll really need to believe in these causes to podcast them. Do you think PSAs for non-profits and other great causes fit in? PLEASE COMMENT ABOUT THIS. Ya or Nay?

ANNOUNCER : I’m standing in one of Maryland’s most beautiful parks, a great place for us to play, swim, camp and fish.

*Sound Effects*: Kids laughing and playing, birds tweeting.

KID: Okay, first base is the tree, second base is the rock, third base is the log.

ANNOUNCER: But it may not be this way long. The governor has tried to sell public land to developers behind your back.

*Sound Effects*: Jackhammers, tools

KID: Okay, first base is the shovel, second base is the truck, third base is the hard hat.

ANNOUNCER: And this year politicians are diverting 75% of dedicated land conservation funds to unrelated programs.

*Sound Effects*: More building sounds

KID: Okay, first base is the bulldozer, second base is the pipe, third base is the stop sign.

ANNOUNCER: Don’t let the politicians sell out Maryland’s parks and natural spaces. Go to savemarylandlands.org, that’s savemarylandlands.org.

KID: First base is the gas station, second base is the convenience store, third base is the bank. Uh, forget it. Let?s just go play video games.

ANNOUNCER: This message was brought to you by Partners for Open Space.
