Say It Loud: New Songs for Peace

This week on From the Vault, we revisit the Summer of 2003, when the Pacifica Radio Archives was in full production mode gathering classic audio from our extensive collection in preparation for our very first National Broadcast and fundraiser, which would air later that year. One of the original productions was a special sound collaboration called Say It Loud: New Songs for Peace. Original music and hip hop beats were written for specially selected voices of Peace, Justice, Equality and Freedom from the vast programs in the Pacifica Radio Archives:

We Did Not Authorize featuring Dennis Kucinich

I Want All Of My Daughters To Be Like Maxine Waters featuring Maxine Waters

Bin Bush featuring Michael Moore

Silence of the Media Lambs featuring Greg Palast

The Problems Have A History featuring Tariq Ali

The Gift featuring Thich Nhat Hanh

Afrodiva featuring Angela Davis

Father Knows Best featuring Gore Vidal

Say It Loud: New Songs For Peace was a collaboration between the Pacifica Radio Archives and The Polemic Consortium, consisting of two Los Angeles based musicians Gomez and Frank Aragon, and Pacifica Radio Archive Senior Producer Mark Torres. Say It Loud: New Songs for Peace is an original production ONLY available from the Pacifica Radio Archives.

From the Vault is presented as part of the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project.
