From the Soundboard is a program that usually focuses on concerts regardless of genre. This is where the artist and (or) group perfects the art of the “call and response” with its audience. On Tuesday, November 10, @ midnight (that’s Monday into Tuesday), we will focus on some of the panels from the Freedom Rising Conference 2026. I'm focusing on these panels because it's going to take more than a blue wave for any change to happened in this country. It's going to require education and hard work.
Freedom Rising is a nonprofit organization launched by Middle Church (Middle Collegiate Church) in New York City to advance social justice, spirituality, and the arts.Its mission is to prepare ethical leaders for a more just society by uniting progressive leaders who use power and resources to act locally and think globally.

On Tuesday, November 2, @ midnight (that's Monday into Tuesday), we will explore the sounds of J-Pop by focusing on one of the groups that helped give it global attention. They are the group that helped establish the Shibuya-kei (Shibuya Sound). They are the Pizzicato Five.

We're not saying that you shouldnt vote, obviously. But when soooooo much of the mainstream discourse around voting is dominated by discussion within a paradigm that we know is not only deeply flawed, but even more deeply compromised (the two-party system), we've GOT to start seriously exploring meaningful alternatives.
I mean, in this country which has fashioned itself the home of democracy and the "land of the free," we have sincere actors encouraging people to vote for "the lesser of two evils," as if thats okay?!? When did that become the standard for a free society? Why are we so okay with using our basic voting rights to literally vote and stump for candidates who we believe represent significant evils (but not more evils than the other guy!)? What happened to supporting candidates who support our ideals? Our values? Humanity and life itself? And who don't compromise in the face of basic human decency?
What happened to all of that? Did it ever exist?
No matter where you are on the spectrum, or in terms of voting, you should understand why this question matters.

That said, on Tuesday, November 3, beginning at 5pm EST, we're brining you comprehensive mid-term election coverage, produced by Pacifica sister stations and affiliates, and co-hosted by WPFW’s Julianne Malveaux and WBAI’s Jenna Flannigan. At 8pm we go to Democracy Now’s coverage, then at midnight EST, return to Pacifica’s coverage produced and hosted by KPFA. Throughout the evening, we’ll hear voices from across the country on the essential question of what’s at stake and how this election could impact our struggles to safeguard immigrant rights, create economic justice, advance racial equity, and more.
We hope you'll tune in!

On Tuesday, October 13 at midnight (that's Monday into Tuesday) From the Soundboard acknowledges both Indigenous Peoples Day and Latino Heritage Month by focusing on the Folk Rock artist from Detroit who was massively famous in South Africa but didn't know almost thirty years later after his albums original release. What a fascinating back story and the music is unsung.

28-year-old Oscar Belgal, in his Honda CR4, was confronted by masked ICE agents.
Several shots were fired into the car, wounding Belgal in the neck and below his left ear. Incredibly, Belgal’s five year old son in the back seat was not hit.
