Welcome to the feed of Calls for Justice. This extended trailer isn’t very representative of subsequent episodes you’ll find popping up here. In this trailer, host Floyd Hall takes you through the Justice exhibition on view at Science Gallery Atlanta, stopping to hear from mediators as well as artists and experts who created the installations along the way. These installations will be part of what inform future episodes of the podcast.
Those episodes will be your stories. Calls for Justice is an interactive podcast experiment, inspired by the intent of the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967: to provide and extend a platform for education and innovation through a diversity of voices and programming that reflect and serve the public.
As a way of questioning justice in media, Calls for Justice democratizes both voice and ownership of the podcast, aiming to interrogate barriers in media such as gatekeeping and power hoarding; lack of ownership; discrimination; and access to resources.
Visitors to Science Gallery Atlanta can contribute their voice to the podcast by recording a response to prompts on justice in media. Each contributor with a published episode has the option to become a co-owner of the podcast, allowing them to be justly compensated for lending their voice to this project.
Consider this an invitation to join the call. For more information, visit wabe.org/callsforjustice/
