Danielle,
I have left a CD in the Radio News mailbox at the IMC with two
tracks. The first is the IMC Radio Theme and the second is a 15
minute feature. It's not really "produced," i.e. with voice-overs and
background info and such; I unforunately don't have time before
leaving for the weekend. It is a 15 minute chunk, pretty self
contained, of a talk given at the anti-globalization teach-in on
campus a few weeks ago by Chie Abad, a former sweatshop worker in
Saipan and now a speaker with Global Exchange. She discusses the
effects of IMF/World Bank policies on her homeland of the Philippines,
her experiences during her six years as a garment worker in Saipan,
and her organization efforts among factory workers. If you were to
print this email out, that would be a pretty good intro to the
feature. I'm sorry it's not a more completely produced piece.
