You are listening to show 22 of the CLIP podcast. Tonightacirc;euro;trade;s show is the final installation of a three part series, which was recorded on the beautiful island of Hawaii, at the International Reading Associationacirc;euro;trade;s Regional Conference which was held there a few weeks ago. In Todayacirc;euro;trade;s show I build on a text set I had started in a previous show as well as talk about Podcasting in general. If you havenacirc;euro;trade;t heard the previous two installations I would urge you to at least listen to Show# 21 prior to listening to tonightacirc;euro;trade;s show. And as the sun sets on my memorable and heart warming experience in Hawaii, I urge you to please visit my blog post regarding supporting Kamehameha Schools.

So itacirc;euro;trade;s about organizing to defend your rights. Another book is Selavi, Thatacirc;euro;trade;s Life which is a true story of Selavi, a street child in Haiti who shares food and a place to sleep with other street children who eventually contributes to opening a home for children and starting Radyo Timoun, Childrenacirc;euro;trade;s Radio, a station run by and for children, which, until March of 2004, was still in operation. At Radyo Timoun, the questions and suggestions of children were broadcast for all to hear. In March, 2004, however, the station was destroyed in the midst of the incredible unrest in Haiti. An article appeared in yesterdayacirc;euro;trade;s USA Today that would fit nicely with this text set. Another text that would be a wonderful fit with this already powerful text set is a song performed by a group of Kindergarten to Grade Six children at Se...
