Hello MLK Jr Poets & Parents,
Thanks so much for taking the time to record your beautiful poems for air on KCSB 91.9 FM. We plan to air the poems beginning tonight (Tuesday) at 5pm.
The poems will air at 5pm on Tuesdays and Fridays for the next few weeks. Because KCSB FM is operating on automation (due to COVID) – our timing could be off as much as 5-6 minutes on either side of the hour, meaning that day’s poem will air sometime between 4:55pm and 5:05pm (so keep listening!). Since I’m sending this late notice – I’ve scheduled tonight’s poem to air again at the end of this schedule, to give the family enough advance notice to tune-in to listen at 91.9 FM and www.kcsb.org.
2/9 – Ravi P
2/12 – Zoe R
2/16 – Kundai C
2/19 – Elena B
2/23 – Angel H
2/26 – Sarah D
3/2 – Sam K
3/5 – Ravi P
These poems will also air on KCSB 91.9 FM at other times through the months of February and March, I just can’t let you know the exact times/days of the other airings. In addition, I can send each poet’s poem to you privately in a separate email (MP3 file) once it airs, so you can have it forever. Our KCSB leadership team decided to not put the poems on our website, KCSB.org, at this time. So, that’s why I wanted to be sure you can have an MP3 version.
You are all so talented – and our KCSB listeners will appreciate listening to your powerful words and voices. Thank you so much!. And, thanks to Toni and E Onja at the MLK Jr. SB Committee, and our KCSB production director Sherry Zeng and program director Zeena Omar for making this project possible.
Warmest regards,
Lisa Osborn
