Making Contact - National Radio Project: `We are pleased to announce the beginning of a new national radio program that gives listeners information they need to take action. A few years short of the 21st century, we believe that the only future worth creating is one that will bring economic equity, equal opportunity, peace and social justice for everyone. Right now, our society is very far from such goals. But we hope that this radio program will be part of an upsurge during the next few years, replacing cynicism and passivity with activism and determination -- based on the humanity that all people share.'
