A good recap of a great set of specials
written by Pete Korakis, August 06, 2007
Pacifica, together with AMARC, provided 4 days of great coverage and sound. The USSF was a historic moment for the left in the US, and abroad, and its always great to see Pacifica Radio doing its job by being present and broadcasting the forum to a larger venue.. community radio doing its thing is always a great site to [see, or] listen too.. peace, and best of luck organizing post-USSF everyone!
