G-town Radio is proud to present news breaks from the Media Mobilizing Project.  You will hear new pieces each week on Tuesdays and Thursdays (noon & 5 PM).

This week's On Blast segment is called The Struggles of the Homeless in Philadelphia (1995-96).  In January of 2010, the Poverty Initiatve, a group based in New York that aims to reignite Dr. Martin Luther King's Poor People's Campaign, visited Philadelphia for an immersion tour. The tour highlighted the history of the struggles of poor people in this city. Willie Baptist and Liz Theoharis shared stories about the struggle of the homeless in 1995 and 1996, which included a "tent city" and the takeover of an abandoned church.  This piece was produced by Gregory Jordan-Detamore.

Labor Justice Radio this week features a piece called "They're Not Considering Us As Human": A Worker Speaks Out.

No talking.
No humming.
No pausing to drink water.
Don't stop moving.
Don't complain about lack of ventilation.
Just keep cleaning.

These are the rules that workers like Darnell Dixon are expected to follow. Darnell is a cleaner in a prominent center city office building (which he chose not to name publicly.)  In this piece, he details the list of new rules for workers in his building and the ways that workers' human rights are being violated. John Mason conducted the interview for this piece.
