[Peace] (2nd try) Progressive Activist programming available on UPTV (cablechannel 6)

Fri Apr 29 22:00:20 CDT 2005

Well my first attempt to post this didn't preserve the color-coded table formatting (sorry). This should do the trick, though...

Below is a calendar of progressive activist programming on UPTV, cable
channel 6 on Insight Communications cable system which serves Champaign,
Urbana, Savoy and surrounding communities. You should (hopefully) see a
color-coded grid, followed by a description of the programs in that grid.
This is a collaborative project of many folks in the community (mostly AWARE
folks, but others as well).

And don't forget: The full video edition of "Democracy Now!" also airs *LIVE
VIA SATELLITE* each weekday at 7AM (set your VCR if you're not up that early
8-)
