Communication is awesome, revolutionary and fast-paced. The mediums are growing that are empowering the average non-corporate citizens of the world with a voice in a seemingly powerless world. I was approached by someone who will sponsor me for a radio blog to enhance my current blog www.twocanview.com.
Hubert Pipersburg initiative to start his own radio blog addressing pressing issues facing Belize is revolutionary. Issues in Belize are many times clouded by political labeling, fear of political backlash and apathy borne out of years of failed promises. Please listen to Hubert premiere show here:
Hubert and I have discussed and written in length about different issues facing Belize; we have attracted different audiences, criticisms and even suspicion from our writings. Embedded in the political system in Belize is a culture of partisan politics. Ideas are accepted or denied based on the political party in power and perception of person’s political affiliation. The aim of Blog Radio is to reach the non-readers and engage the Belizean public at home and the diaspora.
Since Hubert and I attract different audiences, the ideas and education must continue to be shared with our citizens through different voices. Citizens should benefit from knowledge outside the political lens. With that said, please tune in on Sunday Dec 29th @2 PM for a one hour discussion. Joining me will be Hubert to discuss public policy issues facing Belize. (Postmortem of the Holiday Cheer Program). You can tune in here:
