I just spoke with the folks in Greenville Mississippi and am reaching out
on thier behalf.
I spent a few months in Greenville MS to help with the building of WDSV
(delta Sounds and Voices) a few years back,, when the "Generation 2007"
full-power stations were built. It was a brave and pioneering project they
were conducting.
It's a great frequency, a respected organization, The Delta Foundation,
which dates back to the civil rights movement, dedicated to financial
equality in one of the poorest parts of the USA. Greenville, is
traditionally the largest city on the Big River besides after New Orleans,
with a community that really could use a voice.
They are on the verge of giving WDSV up because they have not been able to
figure out how to make this work. The trouble is that no one has had any
real experience in community radio. They are looking for someone with the
interest and experience to help them make community radio happen in the
Delta.
I promised I would get the word out. Does this interest you in any way? Any
thoughts? You can contact me or contact them directly:
