The Pacifica Mission Statement, by Pacifica Founder
Lewis Hill
Statement
of the Concerned Friends of WBAI
adopted January 11, 2001
One
We, the Concerned Friends of WBAI, reject all interventions by the
Pacifica Foundation's national staff or Board of Directors into
the management of WBAI which are carried out without a process that
includes the participation of WBAI's staff and Local Advisory Board.
Two
We call for the immediate reinstatement of all fired staff, the
immediate and permanent lifting of all bans which have kept staff
members and listeners out of the station or off the air, a commitment
to no gag rule, the removal of security guards, the restoration
of regular programming, and the end of all censorship.
Three
We demand a democratic process involving staff (paid and unpaid),
listeners and the Local Advisory Board to determine the General
Manager of the station.
Four
We demand that Pacifica immediately guarantee that all staff, paid
and unpaid, be included in the WBAI collective bargaining unit.
Five
We call on station staff and listeners to support:
a) the current lawsuits against the Pacifica National Board;
b) establishment of local election procedures for the ongoing selection
of Local Advisory Board members;
c) national efforts, including those at the other four Pacifica
stations, to establish a democratic process within the national
Board to allow the Foundation to return to Lewis Hill's original
mission.
