[cma-l] CMA radio sanctuary campaign suggestion

I remember that audio Glyn - really good stuff.

And yes Caroline - if ever there was a sector that could show the positives
of welcoming all to our our communities it's community media.  As racism
and xenophobia rears its unacceptable face again we should all look to see
how we can step up to the plate and show we wont tolerate it...

Best done in a simple positive way IMHO - 'Welcome' and 'Together' are far
better messages than 'Anti' this or 'Ban' that... and with the numbers of
diverse communities and voices that our provides a home for it's not a big
leap to shout that out a bit louder.  This is not about political
correctness but about celebrating our humanity.

Bests

Please note that I work at Radio Regen under 2 days a week so responses
might not be as quick as we'd like.  Many thanks.
