All stars possible! This is an excellent organization, with a dedicated Director and Youth Coordinator. Find out more at www.freedomarchives.org 10 years ago I was one of the founders of the Freedom Archives and since then, in addition to contributing to many of its audio productions (making use of many thousands of hours of unique sound recordings on social movements and cultural currents), I have come in regularly as a volunteer to enter detailed information about radical radio programs produced in the late 60s and 70s (through the mid-90s) into the online database. I am an elder, but most of the volunteers and interns at the Archives are college and high school students.
