The Community News Production Institute [CNPI] in partnership with "Global Movements, Urban Struggles" aired its monthly show on WBAI 99.5FM at 10AM.

This month's show reflects on the historic presidential election through a mini documentary from People's Production House; the increasing homelessness in NYC combined with high food prices and difficult economic conditions forcing many New Yorkers to change plans for Thanksgiving; the stabbing of Marcelo Lucero, the Ecuadorian immigrant; and the sudden death of South African singer, Miriam Makeba, in Italy.
