Gulf Coast Mainline

Traveling with the young people of the Youth Media Justice Project is the Rev. Marjani Dele, an activist who also works with young people in the City of New Orleans. Rev. Marjani asked YMJP to post the following message:

Live from the National Conference for Media Reform

Help us to launch...

GULF COAST MAINLINE
...a national communications channel connecting displaced persons from the 2005 Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. We are working to provide them with vital information and soulful inspiration for rebuilding lives...

Check out our previous live broadcasts through the Pacifica radio Network or log on to www.operationgulfcoast.net.

MISSION
...to launch an internet radio station which broadcasts survivor information weekly while providing a venue for spoken word artists and healing circles. We want to train young adults from New Orleans in the production and hosting of radio shows.

A WORK IN PROGRESS...
... Prometheus Project is willing to produce a training workshop in New Orleans for the youth slated to initiate the effort

...The New Orleas Boys and Girls Club, Treme Center, Ashe Center and high school activists have expressed an interest in pursuing this effort...

....Later this year, Into Afrika Inc. will host retreats for participants at Into Afrika's new site in southern Virginia
