Houston Activists Petition Local Pacifica Radio Station to Endorse BDS

Students from new US Campaign member group theUniversity of Houston Students for a Democratic Societyhave joined with other Houston activists to campaign for Houston-based Pacifica Radio station KPFT to endorse the Palestinian-led campaign for boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS).

An ad-hoc KPFT BDS Committee of station listeners and members originally formed in response to KPFT's giving air-time to "Voice of Peace," a show promoting Israel historically produced by the Israeli Government. KPFT is a listener-supported radio station with a mission to promote peace and social justice. Airing this programming was a clear violation of the BDS call. The ad-hoc committee of concerned individuals sees BDS as "the fullest action to address the current situation and prevent pro-colonial propaganda in the future."

The committee put together this petition- All are encouraged to sign!!
