[youthradioleaders] KUOW's "Getting Raised" on PRX

[Johanna Franzel (Jones)]

Hello Friends,

Our dreams have come true!  Really.   For years, many of us have 
imagined a better, more thought provoking world, a world where youth 
voices from across the country are brought together to address a theme 
in depth.  We had no idea just how good it would sound.  "Getting 
Raised," the collaborative special from KUOW and Generation PRX 
demonstrates the power of youth-produced radio.  If you haven't yet 
done so, click here right now, http://www.prx.org/pieces/15983, to 
listen to "Getting Raised."

Thanks to producer Jenny Asarnow and host Jennol Jenkins and her 
mother, Debra, you can hear a range of stories on the topic of "Getting 
Raised," listen to follow up interviews with the producers and see 
pictures via the KUOW website: http://kuow.org/newspecials/raised.asp  
Please write a review, share the work, and let us know what you think.  
A GIANT shout out to all the youth producers who share their work via 
Generation PRX and make this possible. KUOW will be collaborating with 
GenPRX for a new special in the spring.

Next up: YouthCast, the Generation PRX podcast through alt.NPR, will be 
relaunched with an experienced youth producer hosting and blogging the 
show.  Details to come.
