In November of 2002, I accompanied a number of media activists to the town of Opalousas, Louisiana to witness the building of the only Low Powered FM radio station licensed to a civil rights organization. KOCZ FM is owned and operated by the Southern Development Foundation and is at the forefront of a new wave of radio stations designed to serve the needs of local communities in the U.S.

This audio documentary won the Best of Festival Audio Documentary award from the Broadcast Education Association's Festival of Media Arts in 2004.
