Join IndyMediaLive  for an important conversation with
attorney Steve Northup, Executive Director of Virginians for
Alternatives to the Death Penalty  (www.vadp.org) . Yes, Virginia,
there are alternatives to state-sanctioned murder. The discussion will
focus on the efforts in the General Assembly to expand the crimes that
would become eligible for capital punishment.

This show will air again tomorrow, February 1, on the WRIR webstream
at 11:30 AM  and  2:30 PM.  You can listen to the show over and over!

Plan to be with us next week when our guest will be Rob Marmet from
the Piedmont Environmental Council, discussing the many problems with
lifting the ban on uranium mining in Virginia and what is happening
with this issue in the General Assembly.Every Tuesday at 12:30 PM, progressives in Richmond tune in to IndyMediaLive and hear what democracy sounds like!  One of the original shows in the WRIR lineup, IndyMediaLive has been on the air since January 2005, encouraging and empowering listeners to become part of our community’s conversation, and inspiring listeners to get involved through the examples of the lives of weekly guests who are passionately involved in the issues and causes that directly affect all of us.

 

By focusing on peace and social justice, a clean energy future for Virginia and the world, health care for all, greening the economy, the LGBT community, criminal justice and the abolition of the death penalty, the concerns of women and children, the benefits of a vegan diet, as well as many other timely topics, IndyMediaLive supports the mission of WRIR – to bring the news and views that receive little or no attention in mainstream media to the airwaves.

 

With its event announcements, news and special interest segments, IndyMediaLive has become the go-to radio show for Richmond’s progressives.
