Want a democratic KPFA/Pacifica? Vote for the RESCUE PACIFICA slate of candidates
for the 2021 KPFA Local Station Board election!
Rescue Pacifica KPFA Local Station Board (LSB) candidates are fighting to bring KPFA back to its anti-war and anti-imperialist roots and for a democratic listener and staff governance model that delivers accountability, transparency and programming that is independent from mainstream US media conglomerate neoliberal politics, news and culture. We will fight to keep Pacifica Network intact with its five stations and its 220 affiliates.
Why are we called Rescue Pacifica? Because we have seen how some of those who now call themselves “KPFA protectors”, have TWICE tried to change the By-laws that would’ve disenfranchised listeners by taking away the power of LSBs; have used shock doctrine tactics to illegally try to close down our sister station WBAI; delayed payment of important bills; failed to comply with regulatory requirements that would secure our assets and our funding; and have unsuccessfully sued Pacifica to try to put assets into receivership. We have stepped up to rescue Pacifica from these “protector” pretenders.
Pacifica is the last of the remaining truly independent community radio networks in the U.S. today. We need to keep it that way.
Vote for these candidates!
We also support allied STAFF CANDIDATES Frank Sterling, Anthony Fest, Ann Garrison & Independent LSB candidate Vicente Cruz
