As critical mass celebrated their birthday in London, critical mass radio launched serious collobaration between radio stations in the USA.
The theme is Mayday.
Its easy to use the radio stations on our network, and to come up with suggestions suitable to more commercial concerns, and rememer there is free telephone software out there run on skype and no excuses for providing good live feed and trans-national coverage and playback to this year's days. you can liven your local shows with words from others like yourselves in far off places. Critical Mass Radio Network (CMRN) is a decentralized international radio network composed of independent community radio stations. On the last Friday of every month, stations all over the country rebroadcast programming from all other stations in the network. So people in Portland can hear the voices of people in LA and New York, people in New York hear San Diego and Santa Cruz – you get the idea.

May day in chicago is particularly resonant.
It was there over a hundred years ago that protesters were killed for wanting to work the hours precarious workers have now "if they're luck".

The U$ president, who @ 600,000$ annual income comes in almost at 2% of most top paid CEOs of multi-national corporations based in the U$A, is familiar to you.
At the moment he's surprising some in his second term reaching an all time low in the commercial press opinion polls, for his long vaunted social security reforms.
The plans are vague, and we can be sure that the result will be different to the one pundited, and not even rely on truth. But enough say, people in the states wonder what will happen to the closest they ever dreamt of getting to the type of social welfare system we in €urope take for granted.
the Precarious of the U$A face many employment options but all of them are to be found in the shopping mall of human resource placement corporations or labor market lowest common denominator hiring.
there is one exception - The Army.
Military recruiters locked themselves in their offices, as anti-recruitment protesters rallied in front of their office in Eureka, California. One young recruit was handed literature on the dangers of being exposed to depleted uranium and information on how to become a conscientious objector. The counter-recruitment event was part of a 4-day community and Humboldt State University campus teach-in in remembrance of the 30th anniversary of the end of the US war against Vietnam. The festivities started with a well-attended walk-out of the Arcata high school.

Since January 2004, the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has informed more than 300,000 immigrants that because there is a problem with their Social Security Number on file, their driver's license will be suspended unless they can provide a valid Social Security number.
This effects more than 300,000 people, and get your imagination beyond the yellow cab driver or NYC, familes and work (all of it by nature precarious) effected.
New York City IMC, along with several other local IMC websites, has been defaced by enemies exploiting a security flaw in the DadaIMC code. While we attend to the problems, please use the US IMC site for all of your community reporting needs.
