Rustbelt Radio is the Pittsburgh Independent Media Center's weekly review 
of the news from the grassroots, news overlooked by the corporate media.
Tune in tonight, May 15th at 6pm, and Tuesday the 16th at 9am on 88.3FM!

On this week's show,

    * We investigate the issues surrounding a new waste coal power plant 
proposed for Robinson Township, Washington county.
    * We'll hear about the importance of lower power FM radio and the 
fight for community media, from a recent discussion held in Pittsburgh 
with Hannah Sassaman of the Prometheus Radio Project
    * the return of our segment which spotlights a local grassroots group, 
The Light at the End of the Fort Pitt Tunnel. This week we'll hear about 
Run-Baby-Run. It's a crash-course to turn ordinary folks into electable politicians.
    * and two doctors from Kenya talk about providing post-abortion care to 
women in Kenya, and women's access to reproductive health care
