I was on a zoom w/ the executive of XRAY, Klyph, Ambush, and others the night before Blackout Tuesday, wondering what to do for the next day's broadcast. We hoped to go silent the entire day, but weirdly enough it's illegal to not broadcast on FM and we could lose our license (big deal). I decided to play music the first 30min by black artists I admire, play speeches the next 30min by black voices, then I handed it off to Ambush of the black run The Numberz radio station (96.7 PDX) for the last hour. This is the first section, listen to the podcast on www.xray.fm for the full show.
