				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img width="150" height="150" src="/media/1/files/2013/06/WIF-2-150x150.jpg?0011a8" class="attachment-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="Live Radio Show Features Female Mariachi Band and More" title="Live Radio Show Features Female Mariachi Band and More" style="float:right;" /><p>Angy Rivera, a Colombian-born undocumented immigrant, was petrified when she was stopped at the airport on her way to North Carolina last summer. She was relieved to discover it was only a can of hair mousse tucked away in her bag that was attracting attention. “I’m there panicking, I don’t know what to do&#8230;they are going to take me away,” she said. The 22-year-old Queens resident said those are the kinds of situations she and other undocumented young adults run into all the time. </p>
<p>As part of the 2nd episode of the on-stage radio show &#8220;Where I’m From,&#8221; Rivera shared some of the advice she gives regularly through her blog for undocumented youth, “Ask Angy.” Brooklyn’s Jalopy Theatre was filled for the June 8th event featuring Angy and a cohort of other diaspora voices from around the city and the world. </p>
<div id="attachment_19866" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 530px"><a href="/media/1/files/2013/06/WIF-1.jpg?0011a8"><img src="/media/1/files/2013/06/WIF-1-520x346.jpg?0011a8" alt="Ai Jen Poo, director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, talks about the lives and struggles of the more than 2 million domestic workers in the U.S. (Photo by Adrianne Mathiowetz)" width="520" height="346" class="size-medium wp-image-19866" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Ai Jen Poo, director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, talks about the lives and struggles of the more than 2 million domestic workers in the U.S. (Photo by Adrianne Mathiowetz)</p></div>
<p><a href="http://whereimfromshow.com/">&#8220;Where I’m From&#8221;</a> is a new radio initiative created by the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism that is done in front of a live audience, and also recorded and produced for broadcast. Host and CUNY Journalism instructor Jesse Hardman said the second episode of the show helped define the project and what it’s trying to accomplish. “During the program you could see people in the audience, and on the stage, starting to not only get, but engage the &#8220;Where I’m From&#8221; concept. We want to introduce voices that can address sensitive subjects, like immigration, race, and fair wages, and instead of a lecture, create a real dynamic conversation. Seeing people talking after the show, sharing opinions and ideas, exchanging phone numbers, that’s how we measure success.”</p>
<p>The show attracted a diverse audience, who tweeted in answers to the question, “where are you from?” with locations as diverse as Kenya, Queens, Brazil, Buffalo, and the Philippines. Mark Toller, a Brooklynite originally from Canada, was impressed by the diversity of the performers and the information they shared. “I’m not from here so it was interesting to hear things I maybe had an idea of but never thought of,” said Toller. </p>
<p>CUNY J-School Radio Director Tina Pamintuan oversees the &#8220;Where I’m From&#8221; project. She said she’s excited about the future of the program and identifies personally with the mission of the show. “My parents came to the U.S. from the Philippines and I grew up in a tiny town in Delaware. When I was a kid, people always asked where I was from. They couldn&#8217;t fathom that I&#8217;d been born in the same hospital as them! The name of this show reflects how different the country&#8217;s demographics are today and celebrates that.”</p>
<p>One of the connections made during the program came from comedian Vladimir Caamaño, who referred back to Angy Rivera’s comments by sharing his own struggles growing up as the son of an undocumented Dominican father in the South Bronx. His stories of navigating the move from the city to a mostly white liberal arts college in Connecticut and then back to New York got the crowd laughing. He touched on the reality of the changing demographics of the U.S., using the last presidential election as an example. “The Romney campaign looked like a Florida retirement home, the Obama campaign looked like a community center in the Bronx.” Cammaño also shared how humor has been his survival tool. “I started going to comedy to get it off my chest, to kind of heal a little bit,” Caamaño said. </p>
<p>Other &#8220;Where I’m From&#8221; guests included Ai-Jen Poo, the head of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, who spoke about the lives of the more than 2 million nannies, home health care workers, and housekeepers in the U.S. Chris Ochun, a Nuyorican Santaría priest and spiritualist in the Bronx, talked about his realization as a teenager that he had powers of intuition, and how that led him to the Afro-Caribbean religious practices of Orisha. </p>
<p>Recent CUNY J-School graduate Nabil Rahman shared an essay about his experiences stuck in the immigration office at JFK airport. Originally from Bangladesh, Rahman has been a U.S. citizen since his teens. Still, he gets stopped and questioned every time he returns to New York from abroad. “My parents brought us here for a better education and life, wanting to take us away from a system of bribery and corruption, to a place where there’s no favoritism or discrimination. Getting stopped feels so unfair,” he said.</p>
<p>The musical guest was the all-female Mariachi ensemble, Flor de Toloache. Founder and lead singer Mireya Ramos brought three of her band mates to play both original and classic Mariachi tunes. She talked about what it’s like to immerse in a musical tradition that is dominated by Mexican males. “In the Mariachi community we’re sometimes criticized about our costumes, because we’re not Mexican. But we love what we’re doing. We do it with a lot of respect and a lot of passion.”</p>

<p>The audience was treated to pupusas by the El Salvadoran food truck, Solber Pupusas, which specializes in  the special corn and cheese pancake native to Central and South America. Cesar Fuentes, the head of the Red Hook Food Vendors Association, also dropped by to talk about the evolution of street food in New York City.  </p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By Shannon Firth<br />
Class of 2013</p>
<p>In 1996, radio producer Joe Richman handed a mic and tape recorder to a handful of teenagers across the country, entrusting them with a seemingly simple task: Show me your world. </p>
<p>It took between five months and a year for Richman’s fledgling biographers to share their life stories, eventually recording 30 to  40 hours of tape each. Throughout this period, Richman trawled through reels and reels of tape for scenes and stories, humor and gravitas, and ultimately transformed the tape into the exceptional short narratives known as the original Teenage Diaries series. This spring, National Public Radio and Richman released updated stories with five of the original biographers who documented their lives 16 years later. </p>
<p>To end the semester, the radio program invited Richman to speak about both series with Alex Goldmark, CUNY radio instructor and a senior producer at WNYC.</p>
<p><iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/66571640" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe>
<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/66571640">&#8216;Radio Diaries&#8217; Founder Joe Richman &#8211; May 17, 2013</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/cunyjschool">CUNY Grad School of Journalism</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
<p>He sat down with Richman, now a multiple award-winning producer, to find out how the Teenage Diaries were made and what it was like connecting with these same diarists over a decade and a half later. The event was attended by students, alums, and members of the NYC radio community. It was held in the J-School’s newsroom and streamed live online. </p>
<p>Richman said he learned a great deal from producing Teenage Diaries, but one thing he still struggles with is anticipating who will make a good subject. “In the beginning, I thought the funny extroverted talkers were the good ones. But sometimes it’s better to have people who make you kind of lean in and listen a little harder.” Some diarists, he explained, thought like producers, noticing sounds, setting up scenes, and interviewing other people. The introspective ones shined in quieter moments, trying to make sense of their problems or thinking aloud about their future. “There  are so many different kinds of good,” he said.</p>
<p>The audience may have been surprised to learn that the diarists were paid a nominal fee for their stories and that they retained editorial control. Richman said he wouldn’t let the diarists review a story in its entirety but he would tell them what was included. In order to keep subjects from self-censoring, he told them ahead of time that they could exclude any piece of tape they wanted. “They are the reporters, and I am the producer, editor,” he said simply. </p>
<p>Richman presented a few of the diarists’ stories, including 17-year old Amanda Brand, his very first collaborator. Amanda is a tough girl who smokes cigarettes and cruises her Queens neighborhood pretending not to care what anyone thinks. But at a kitchen table confession, Amanda’s voice breaks for a single aching moment, as she tells her mother about Dawn, the girl she loves. “We’re  really close. There’s like a love there. More for me towards her than for her towards me,” she said. In this moment, Amanda sounds childlike, scared and frustrated. Her longing to be accepted is apparent to everyone, but her mother.</p>
<p>Josh Cutler, 17, another teenage diarist, records crank phone calls then waxes poetic about merengue music. After some prodding from Richman, he reluctantly brings his tape recorder (at first hidden in his book bag) to school to talk to students about his Tourette’s syndrome. But the most striking moment of tape happens when his mother asks him to speak honestly about his disability. Josh lashes out at her. His loneliness, fear, and frustration are barely concealed behind sarcasm.  </p>
<p>The fact that a microphone can be a catalyst for these rare, raw moments is something that still amazes Richman. “The real heartbeat of a lot of these stories are the conversations between child and parent then, and now sometimes between the diarists and their own children now,” he says.</p>
<p>Richman also presented the diarist, Melissa Rodriguez, who grew up in nine different foster homes before running away. At 18, she describes how she got pregnant and what having a baby will mean for her. Sixteen years later her son Issaiah listens to the recording of his own birth. The soft-spoken Issaiah asks his mother how her life would have been different if he hadn’t been born.</p>
<p>After hearing these excerpts, the audience was eager to learn how they could use Radio Diaries’ techniques in their own stories. Richman advised “think like a filmmaker,” in scenes. “They need to be distinct chapters of things. Otherwise it’s just one run-on mush and that’s boring to everyone.” This means creating a complete package; he encouraged the reporters in the audience to practice getting subjects to share not only the action of the story but the “messy stuffy that gets you from here to there.” Beginning and endings are critical, he observed. “I get obsessed with getting capital letters and periods.” </p>
<p>As for what makes a story good, Richman says listeners like to feel a range of emotions. “Happy-sads” is what he and his team started to call these stories. “There are just moments of both. And both isn’t even both. There are moments of like eight different [emotions]. That’s just like life.&#8221;</p>
<p>The event wrapped up with a &#8220;Sweet Sixteen&#8221; celebration for Radio Diaries, a media organization just in its teen years.</p>

<p>The CUNY Graduate School of Journalism on Thursday launched <a href="http://www.TheNabe.me">The Nabe</a>, a site that extends the experiment in collaborative hyperlocal journalism <em>The New York Times </em>began in March 2009 with the debut of The Local.</p>
<p>The Nabe shares the same goal as its predecessor site: to help residents of Brooklyn’s Fort Greene and Clinton Hill cover their neighborhoods, using the emerging tools of journalism to tell and share stories in compelling new ways.</p>
<p>These last four years have brought great change, not only to dynamic Fort Greene and Clinton Hill, but also to The Local. The CUNY J-School, which worked with The Times and the community from the start of The Local, took over day-to-day operations in January 2010, under the supervision of Times editors.</p>
<p>The Times, after vastly contributing to and gleaning lessons from The Local, has moved on. The CUNY J-School intends to keep the experiment going and growing.</p>
<p>In making a fresh start, the blog’s name – and location (The Nabe can be found at <a href="http://www.TheNabe.me">http://www.TheNabe.me</a>) – has changed. But not its mission.</p>
<p>The faculty and students of the CUNY J-School are dedicated to making The Nabe a place where neighbors not only can come together to talk about anything via online forums, but also to contribute – as commenters, tipsters, writers, editors, crowdsourcing project participants, videographers and photographers.</p>
<p>Our reporters will cover the same mix of crime, school, political and arts news, as well as offer glimpses into the lives of local residents – and their pets. But we’re also here to help residents cover the neighborhood – with everything from write-ups of community board meetings to videos of school concerts to pictures of soccer games in the dust bowl in Fort Greene Park.</p>
<p>In the meantime, hope to see you soon, in The Nabe.</p>
