[grc] BREONNA SIMULCAST - Station List - Google Doc

[Susan Sheldon]

Sharon, thank YOU for the work you put into this.

One thing our responses to COVID have taught us is that we can do things we
thought impossible.

Many of us noticed how quickly the outrages committed against black women
(by the police and others) faded from public consciousness. The actions of
a single community radio station sometimes felt inconsequential.

Thank you for thinking beyond the scope of your station and allowing all of
us to have a moment of solidarity in broadcasting this message.

Warm regards,
Susan Sheldon
