June 1974 KPFK FolioPage 10: Text | Image AlternativesDo you feel as if your options are processed, pre-packaged and shelved like soap in a supermarket? That THE SYSTEM has you by your short (or long) hairs? Locked in? For the past several months, KPFK has been offering a variety of programs on a regular basis that focus on how to become more independent from the established corporate way of life. On Mondays at 4:00 p.m., Milli Martinez talks about food, nutrition, and ways to prepare, inexpensively and tastefully, just about everything from A to Z (or from bread to yoghurt). Fridays at 4:00 p.m., Wina Sturgeon presents a survival-oriented program dealing with a multitude of other choices you have in lifestyles. Wina raises much of her food, sews her family's clothes, keeps the bicycles in shape, the herbs blooming, KCET's L.A. Collective supplied with features, and our phone lines humming. For our freeway life, The Car Show, Saturdays at 12:30, provides information on how to keep your four-wheeled beast in shape, tune it up, feed it right, and gives you enough time to get to the local parts supply store before it closes, to get the job done. Although this program features open phones, we have heard reports of listeners under the hood and beneath the wheels, and we concede that holding a receiver in your hand at the same time, might pose a dilemma. This month, we are offering in addition to the regular on-going programs, a range of options in a variety of areas. As a general rule of thumb, these programs are scheduled on Mondays at 7:30 p.m. and on Thursdays at 10:30 p.m. and they spotlight new ways of organizing and servicing people according to their own needs; the needs of survival such as health, food, law; the needs of a complex technological society such as media, labor, education. You'll be listening to all this on Pacifica Radio, an alternative in media. | |
