[Andrew Ó Baoill]

FYI. I've ordered CDs and will bring them to the station when they  
arrive. We can consider adding them to the automation if they seem  
worthwhile.

> Action Speaks! - Underappreciated Dates that Changed America  
> presents its 2009 spring series of 4 one hour public forums on  
> burning issues seen in historical context. The first of these is now  
> available on PRX, Content Depot and free CDs:
> 1933: The Creation of the Civilian Conservation Corps
> "Did the Civilian Conservation Corps' building dams, planting trees  
> and taking boys from city to countryside help end a depression, or  
> were we then (and are we now, with the Obama stimulus package) just  
> pretending?"
> Since 1995, Action Speaks! has been committed to enhancing cultural  
> life with unbiased discourse between scholars, artists, students,  
> and citizens.  Host Marc Levitt keeps the pace energetic and the  
> talk lively during open-ended discussions in the casual atmosphere  
> of the downtown Providence arts organization. These are recorded,  
> edited, and rebroadcast on Rhode Island's NPR station, WRNI 1290 AM.

> The upcoming three forums take these "unappreciated dates" as  
> topical cues:
> 1949: Arthur Miller's 'Death of a Salesman' First Produced
> "What does it mean to 'fail' in America? Have we failed or has the  
> 'American Dream' proven to be hollow? Is there an alternative?"
> 1937: The Flint, Michigan United Auto Workers Sit-In
> "Where's the anger at corporate bailouts and industry-wide layoffs?  
> The auto industry, unions and the drive to protest; has it stalled  
> and are unions pot-holes on the road to recovery?"
> 1961: JFK Calls for the Moon!
> "President Kennedy called for a Moon Landing. President Obama wants  
> a 'Green' Nation. Are solar panels and wind turbines as exciting as  
> 'One Giant Leap for Mankind?' How do we re-energize and re-mobilize  
> America?"
> Please sample this excellent show.  Contact us with any questions,  
> and do let us know your airtimes when you have them.
