Out of the Woods - Show #316 - 4-30-16
April 22, 2016, 6:41 p.m.
This version of the program is divided into 6 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length.
Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul

Workers Strike Against Verizon's War On Union Rights & Protections
April 22, 2016, 5:35 p.m.
Workers Say Hell No To Verizon s War On Union Rights & Protections
with
Pete Sikora, Strike Coordinator, CWA Region 1
Nearly 40,000 Verizon workers have hit the picket lines, in what would be one of the largest strikes in the U.S. in recent years. The workers, members of the Communication Workers of America (CWA) and International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), are fighting aggressive attacks on their compensation, job security and more--carried out by a corporation that has made $39 billion in profits over the past three years, but won't be satisfied until it breaks the power of their unions. Verizon is attacking the workers medical, pensions, disability, overtime and is attempting to rescind Article 8 , which protects the workers right to show up to work in the same place, every day, a reasonable distance from where they live. Verizon s proposed contract would also allow for closing more call centers and for transferring the workers up to 80 miles from their current job sites, as well as opening the door to increased international outsourcing. And, while there is already a two-tier system for job security the proposed contract would eliminate job security no matter how long you ve been with the company. Verizon is seeking to transform the company to be more oriented to Wireless and modeled more on the workplace culture of Wireless,which is over-whelmingly nonunion. But, the workers say you can t break our backs and assert the power of the union to protect against the bosses voracious drive for profits and control.
Plus, a special message from Bernie Sanders from the union picket line and discussion on why CWA supports Sanders for President.

Rev Traci Blackmon - Ferguson and Palestine - God Is In the Resistance
April 20, 2016, 9:04 p.m.
Rev. Blackmon was one of the keynote speakers at the conference on Radicalized States & Popular Resistance: From Chicago to Jerusalem .
She speaks about her experience in Ferguson, Missouri and her trip to Palestine as part of an interfaith delegation to bare witness; she comments on the direct links between racist oppression by the Israeli occupiers of Palestine and the militarized, anti-terrorist, sniper equipped troops, trained in Israeli techniques, who were dispatched to Ferguson to put down the youth led protest following the murder of Michael Brown. Palestinian youth who are routinely tear gassed on their way to school, shot at, and killed with impunity, by Israeli soldiers, tweeted to the Ferguson protesters their solidarity and information on how to protect oneself from the effects of tear gas.
She recounts her experience of Israeli security when arriving at the airport and at the check points and an exchange with the Assistant Deputy to the U.S. Consulate who met with her delegation for a briefing ahead of their return.
She speaks of her meeting with a Palestinian mother, whose child, shot by an Israeli sniper, struggles to understand his murder; Israeli officials are above explanation or apology as to why the youth was shot in the back while playing in a playground; that he was perceived as a threat to the illegal settlement in his village surfices.
Rev. Blackmon is Director of Justice and Witness Ministries, United Church of Christ.
