Pacifica Radio Campus Campaign Coming This Monday & Tuesday, 11/16 & 17! Looking Back Leads To Our Future

Last year Pacifica listeners sponsored over 783 schools nationwide with educational packages from The Pacifica Radio Archives. This year the annual marathon broadcast fund drive premiers the Campus Campaign 2.0

From the Vault to the Classroom: Providing a new generation with a sound education

The Campus Campaign is a new initiative to bring the historic recordings of Pacifica Radio to the classroom...grassroots style...one school at a time.

On Monday and Tuesday, November 16th and 17th, Pacifica listeners will be treated to a day-long broadcast featuring powerful sounds from the archives collection AND get the chance to select an educational package of From the Vault, like the Civil Rights pack featuring 10 hours of carefully selected audio, and sponsor a school of their choice with a duplicate of their selection. Volume 1 includes: Civil Rights, Malcolm X, U.S. History, Women’s Studies, Environment, 1968 in review, Studs Terkel and Noam Chomsky.

Volume 2 premiers expanded collections in Civil Rights, US History and Arts and Literature. New compilations include Latino/Chicano studies, LGBT studies, Native American studies and Pacifica's Great Voices. Join our facebook fan page and keep updated on the fund drive broadcast here.
