[Imc-radio] headlines

[Sarah Lazare]

hi all, i am really sorry i did not send this email out sooner - our 
computer crashed and the springfield library is closed today, so i had no 
way to use the internet (we finally got the puter fixed).  here are the 
headline ideas i have:

the ukranian elections

an african american man in springfield who was accused of bank robbery, and 
held in prison for weeks, was just released, due to the fact that there was 
no evidence against him.  it turns out the state defendent hadn't even 
looked at his case - he would have been held for much longer if a friend of 
his had not made an appeal to the defendent.  this is a clear example of 
court racism, and i know the people involved.

sunni boycott against iraq elections

the upcoming afta talks in tucson arizona - here is an exerpt from 
us.indymedia.org:
The U.S. is embarking on yet another mission of economic terrorism. A new 
bi-lateral trade agreement between America and three South American 
countries – Colombia, Ecuador and Perú – will be hashed out in Tucson, 
Arizona. The AFTA talks will be held from November 30 through December 4th.

surge of violence in darfur, sudan

question of palestinian leadership

these topics sound ok?  i will write type them out and send them tomorrow 
afternoon.  do you still want me to do a call in - cuz i am still totally 
down.  my little brother said that he would also read some headlines, so we 
could could get an additional voice on the air.  if you have any questions, 
please feel free to call me on my cell phone at 217-816-2918.

hope everyone had a good thanksgiving!!
