[cma-l] CMA radio sanctuary campaign suggestion

Wed Jun 29 11:16:47 BST 2016

I may be thought of as an old cycnic here - but are we not making a huge fuss about something that we at this level can do absolutely nothing  about in terms of a ensuring a positive outcome?Are we not in danger of aggravating the problem by keeping up the publicity?

> 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?
