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.

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.

It sounds like an excellent idea Caroline.  I remember a few years back, the
Community Radio Toolkit ran a competition to record some promos to encourage
people to vote in the election.  I'm proud to say I was involved in the
winning bid.  It was a great experience for me because it involved a
professional writer (I think he did stuff for BBC), and couple of
experienced and funny guys who delivered the voices, and then I delivered
the easy bit - namely- production including sound effects.   

I'd be very happy to collaborate on a similar venture adding my
production/Adobe Audition skills to others' creative skills to deliver
something professional that any station would be happy to broadcast.

It's a really positive reaction to our current situation - let's do it!

Regards,  Glyn

There have been worrying reports over the last couple of days about the rise
in xenophobic and sometimes racist hate speech and behaviours towards
citizens from minority ethnic communities, migrants (including 'temporary'
migrants such as international students) and refugees.

 Can we in the community media community can do some kind of on air/social
media campaign to show how community radio stations are a safe space for
these groups? We have plenty of evidence through programmes and stations run
by and for these communities over a long period of time but now I think it
is time to shout out more about this.

What do CMA members think about this? Maybe there is already a campaign we
can adapt? Any offers to help do or co-ordinate this?
