For Anyone Wondering How Best To Support The Oaxaca People's Movement....
Advertisements [?]
The main artery that has contributed to the success in Oaxaca
has been RadioAPPO. It coordinates and sustains the movement.

RadioTUPA.ORG is working closely to help out in this.

Please check them out and help if you can.

Give Voice

to the

voiceless

Support Project TUPA’s efforts to empower the

Peoples of the Americas with the tools, skills and

technologies for creating & establishing community

radio stations.

Your contribution to Project TUPA will:

• Help send FM broadcast transmitters and equipment to communities

in Mexico, Central America and South America with an immediate need

for community radio stations. Currently, an urgent need for this exists

in Oaxaca, Mexico.

• Support transmitter and radio station building workshops where participants

learn how to build their own transmitters, antennas and other

related items. At the end of the 5 day workshop participants walk away

with an assembled transmitter and the knowledge required to create a

small community radio station.

Project TUPA (Transmitters Uniting the Peoples of the Americas), created by Free Radio

Berkeley, exists to empower indigenous, campesino and barrio communities in the Americas

with the tools, technology, knowledge and skills to build and maintain their own community

broadcast stations. Project TUPA recognizes and supports the global struggle for a decent standard

of living, a safe environment, social justice, political autonomy, grassroots democracy and

the preservation of cultures.

Community broadcast stations are an indispensable tool for: preservation of culture and

language; providing a forum for the discussion of issues and ideas; education and literacy campaigns;

effective organizing within the community; dissemination of news; and artistic expression.

Further, community radio stations empower women and youth who desire to have a voice

and a say in the affairs of the community.

Global Exchange is the fiscal sponsor for Project TUPA. Non-deductible contributions may

be made directly on the Project TUPA website (www.radiotupa.org) via PayPal. Deductible checks

should be made out to Project TUPA/Global Exchange and mailed to the address below.

Project TUPA/Free Radio Berkeley - 1442A Walnut St., Suite 406 - Berkeley, CA 94709
