If you live in a community anywhere in the world without a community radio station or internet access your remaining choices for progressive short wave radio coverage of world events has been greatly reduced.

With content provided by the beginning days of indymedia in 1999 RFPI broadcast to the world the events leading up to the collapse of the WTO meetings in Seattle. RFPI has also covered the negative impacts of the IMF and the World Bank on developing countries and has been the only continuous anti-hate voice on short wave radio. http://www.rfpi.org/vista/frrr-vista.html

After U-Peace was taken over by free traders a few years ago they tried to cooped the control of RFPI with phony offers of monetary support. After that failed and then after a lengthy stand off RFPI was in November 03 evicted from the building they built with listener donated funds on the campus of U-Peace.

Under the leadership of Maurry Strong (a Canadian industrialist) U-Peace is now making sounds like it will be running interference for military organizations such as the now renamed School of the Americas. Check out the below link to “The-Edge” article which has a picture of Maurry so he can be recognized if he should point himself in your direction.

RFPI Internet radio broadcasts have now resumed at http://www.rfpi.org and there are plans to resume short wave broadcasting as soon as a money can be raised to purchase a secure plot of transmitter friendly land. Temporary studios are now operating in San Jose and the alternative media training program is about to start up again, turning out native radio journalists that will be reporting news from all over the Americas and the third world.
