ON THE AIR (A) IN BRAZIL Curitiba is the capital of the state of Parana, in the south of Brazil, located at about 350 kms. to the South East of Sao Paulo with a population of about one and a half million and is thus the tenth largest city in population terms in the country. There they are living through a pioneering experience for the Brazilian and Latin American libertarian movement: the setting up of an anarchist radio transmitor. It's called 'FM 107,9 Burro Brabo, Radio Libre Pirataria' which came on air in the first half of 1995. The launching and running of this iniciative was taken care of by groups who have been active in the area for some time: GR.A.VID.A (Direct Action Anarchist Group and editors of the information sheet DIRECT ACTION) and the collective of the paper JORNAL DO BACACHERI. With an effort which can only be described as extraordinary, given the difficulties which will always attend such a project in Latin America, they managed to concretise the idea and began to transmit music, protest, humour, poetry and anarchism to the listeners in some areas of the city. In correspondence we received in June these enthusiastic friends tell us that shortly they will be able to cover the whole of Curitiba along with it's outskirts thanks to a new aerial they have bought, this was an on- going situation. They also sent us a call so that sympathetic people from all over the world send them support: publications, taped music, poetry, info, suggestions and of course any other form of help (if possible economic). Since everything which arrives is welcome and indespensable so that these radical Don Quijotes can continue with their marvellous project on their 'Burro Brabo' You can contact them at: GR.A.VID.A, Caixa Postal 3395, CEP 80001-970; Curitiba - PR; Brasil.
