Below is a calendar of progressive activist programming (for June) 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 on UPTV as well (set your VCR
or Tivo if you're not up that early 8-)
