Your Call 022609 How do you find your voice and change your world?

How do you find your voice and change your world? On the next Your Call -- in conjunction with an event Thursday night celebrating the voices in Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States -- we'll talk about the voices that inspire us and how we can inspire others. What are the voices from U.S. history that have inspired you? You can send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org or join live at 11 am. Who is speaking out today that will belong in the People's History a century from now? When have you found your own voice? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.
