<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Hi Leah,<br><br></div>Danielle, thanks for connecting us. I just did an event in Miami in December about the chance to start stations! It's too bad we missed each other. <a href="http://www.poweru.org/">Power U</a> hosted the event and they're interested in applying. I also spent a few days in South Florida with the <a href="http://ciw-online.org/">Coalition of Immokalee Workers</a> and their Low Power FM station, which was amazing.<br>
<br></div>I listened to your <a href="http://miamilpfm.wordpress.com/">interview</a> on Let's Talk About It, and it was great. I think your whole blog is really good and I especially appreciate how you're using this opportunity to build media literacy. <br>
<br></div>Can we talk any time next week about the LPFM expansion work you're doing in Miami and opportunities to connect that to our national campaign and other efforts happening in your region?<br><br></div>Thanks,<br>
