  • Isabel: Good morning. This is Isabel broadcasting from the new Phoenix Regazza Radio station. I'd like to open up with a statement on behalf of Adalede Norris and the Women's Army. Her murder serves as a warning for women everywhere for the struggle we face. And the truth will be heard and the story must and shall be told. It is not only the story of women's oppression, it is the story of sexism, racism, bigotry, nationalism, false religion and the blasphemy of the state controlled church, the story of environmental poisoning and nuclear warfare. Of the powerful over the powerless, for the sake of sick and depraved manipulations that abuse and corner the human soul like a rat in a cage. It is all of our responsibilities as individuals and together to examine and to re-examine everything, leaving no stones unturned. Every word that we utter, every action and every thought. We are all, women and men, the prophets of this new age. And for those of us who would be safer in the sensibilities of racism, seperatism and martyrdom: if you can't help us towards building this living church, then step out of the way. The scope and capabilities of human love are as wide and encompassing as this vast universe that we all swirl in. One for all, and all for one-ness. This fight will not end in terrorism and violence. It will not end in a nuclear holocaust. It begins in the celebration of the rites of alchemy. The transformation of shit into gold. The illumination of dark chaotic night into light. This is the time of sweet, sweet change for us all. This is Isabel from Phoenix Regazza Radio, signing off until tomorrow.
  • Isabel: How does one illuminate, A dark and lonely sky, There's only one thing left to do, You got to ram at the darkness with your rhyme. Ryhme, chime, stop on a dime, My love is yours and your love is mine, Kick the stops out...
  • Isabel: Our government is going to flood those areas with the best smack imaginable. And its gonna send everybody into a deep, narcotics sleep where they will not weep or cry out anymore.
  • Isabel: There seems to be some very peculiar things happening these days. Angry, unemployed people are rioting in the streets - and the city's on fire with their rage. Now, what do you think the government plans to do about this situation, besides beatin' 'em over the head with billy clubs? Do they plan to supply them with jobs? With training programs? Or, with decent housing? Nah. You know what they're gonna do? The same bloody tactic they pulled before the revolution. Remember, and I'm here to warn you, its gonna happen again.
  • Isabel: We are rebuilding a warrior nation - of guerrillas. We're going to redesign the mind scape of an alienated culture. Wa're going to return to the spirit. Welcome. It's a new town.
  • Isabel: Wake up! We're being murdered out there in the streets. And if you're gonna sit back and watch it happen, sister, you better get it together and wake up. Because, all your babies and yourself, you're gonna be cleaned out. We ain't gonna be around no more. They gonna be nothin'! A wasteland! A wasteland, sister! Now, get it together. It's time to fight!
