Favoriting July 25, 2020:

Golden Hour of Anatolian Rock


  

We honor the 55th anniversary of the day Dylan shocked (or at least annoyed) the purists by plugging in at Newport - with a celebration of Turkey's Golden Age of plugged-in folk, which happened to get rolling right around the same time. Starting in the second hour of tonight's show, we'll hear source recordings and some of the electric versions they inspired (with a few more recent adaptations too).

On a different (and off-air) musical note: If you're hankering for some old favorites (or new old favorites) check out the new Transpacific Sound Paradise All-Time African Music Faves Spotify Playlist at http://tiny.cc/wfmu-tsp-african-faves!

National Immigration Law Center: Established in 1979, the National Immigration Law Center (NILC) is one of the leading organizations in the U.S. exclusively dedicated to defending and advancing the rights of low-income immigrants.

National Immigration Forum: The National Immigration Forum is one of the leading immigrant advocacy organizations in the country, with a mission to advocate for the value of immigrants and immigration to the nation.

The NYIC promotes immigrants' full civic participation, fosters their leadership, and provides a unified voice and a vehicle for collective action for New York's diverse immigrant communities.

Arab American Family Support Center (New York City): The Arab-American Family Support Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit, non-sectarian organization that provides culturally and linguistically sensitive services to immigrant communities throughout New York City.

Action NYC: ActionNYC connects New Yorkers to free, safe immigration legal help. You can make an appointment to learn your immigration legal options and get immigration application assistance.

Immigration Equality is the leading LGBTQ immigrant rights organization in the country. It provide s advice and legal services to thousands of LGBTQ and HIV-positive immigrants seeking refuge, fair treatment, and freedom in the United States. The work is truly lifesaving because there are nearly 80 countries around the world where it is a crime to be LGBTQ, with consequences up to and including the death penalty.

We achieve fundamental fairness through high-quality legal representation and by advancing the child's best interests, safety and well-being.
