Yeah, I was thinking about you just inventing something, but this live-venue
citizen radio thing would be perfect - all I need to do is write two lines
about how this is emblematic of some trend or thing and suddenly it's an
article. I'll get back to you soon.

no way! I am meeting with a venue about doing a live citizen radio, we
would try to get Garofalo and some other biggies. Maybe that? That
would be massive for us man. I will invent something if need be.

One more thing-
City editor of The Onion just told me they'd be interested in me doing a
profile on you two for publication perhaps a month from now if we can
tie it
to something interesting either of you are doing in the next one or two
months. The upcoming radio thing is probably too soon - let me know if
you've got anything else afterwards.

Yeah, it's nuts. I'm trying to get more people to point out
McCain's
racism
so we can get some critical mass, defeat him, and discredit all
of
these
other con pundits who have defended him. Perhaps Allison can
help?
She
has
far more reach than I do.

Howdy-
Groovy, let's hang then.
As for the projects I mentioned, I've just formed an
organization
here
in
Bushwick that's intended to reduce the number of illegal
police
searches
by
providing legal assistance to victims of such things as well
as
publicizing
such incidents. We've already got a couple of lawyers on
board
as
well
as a
fellow who spent several years working on the ACLU's Drug Law
Reform
Project
and who just moved to New York to serve with the Drug Policy
Alliance.
I've
also recruited a number of people with influence in the
community to
spread
the word about what we're doing and to assist with an
upcoming
information
campaign, among other things. So we're off to a pretty good
start. I
was
hoping you might be willing to give it a mention on Citizen
Radio in
a
couple of weeks when we're closer to launching (we don't even
have a
name
yet).
I've got a couple more things I'm working on that might
interest
you
as
well; about to start doing a weekly web telecast to be aired
on
BushwickBk.com, True/Slant, and a couple of other outlets,
and
would
love to
have you and/or Allison come on as guests. It's going to be
a
sort
of
casual thing, filmed from my living room, and you guys can
promote
your
various projects. BushwickBk has a pretty damned good
audience
and
seems
to
be read by a lot of editors and producers and whatnot - I got
my
Onion
gig
because an editor saw a piece I did for them - so it's a good
place
to
plug
projects.
Let me know what you think. Oh, also, if you know of anyone
with
background
in criminal defense or activism or anything related to what
I'm
doing
with
the illegal search thing, please put them in touch with me.

Yo, Allison-
Not sure if you're familiar with Jeff Goldstein, the
conservative
blogger
who runs Protein Wisdom, but I kind of TOTALLY PWNED THE
FUCK OUT
OF
HIM AND
HIS TOY FASCIST FOLLOWERS and caught him editing his own
comment
afterwards.
Thought you might enjoy it:

You guys should come meet for dinner in the
Myrtle-and-Broadway,
Flushing-Stop-on-the-JMZ area some time. We have actual
restaurants
over
here now. I also wanted to talk to both of you about a
couple of
projects
I've just started that you guys might be interested in.
