This Month On Youth Radio!
Youth Vote

Young people have proven to be an important political force in the 2008 election cycle. Changes in technology are enabling them to get involved in politics in new and interesting ways. Youth Radio’s Denise Tejada believes this generation of youth voters has the potential to be “trendsetters.” (April 27th on KCBS)

Face The Race: PA Edition

Following a weeks-long slumber, Face the Race returned with a vengance! King Anyi Howell and Denise Tejada hosted the Pennsylvania Edition of Face The Race

The New Reality Show

Last week, Pennsylvania voters went to the polls in a crucial Democratic presidential primary. However, Youth Radio’s David Leipper is sick and tired of the candidates’ “backstabbing, nasty divorces, and scandalous rumors.” He thinks the 2008 presidential elections have turned into a reality show. (April 20th on KCBS)

Busted Enthusiasm

It’s exciting to be a first-time voter - a chance to have your voice heard and your vote counted. But what’s it like to be a first-time voter when the candidate you support, isn’t the one receiving most of the attention? 18-year-old Meghan Scheidemann, a freshman at Saint Joseph’s University in Philadelphia, is in exactly that position. (April 20th on NPR's Weekend Edition)

Sounds Like The goal of our project is to educate teens by engaging them with resources and relationship experience. Our goal is to support young people experiencing physical, mental, or emotional abuse in their relationship. We know how critical these stages are in their lives. Please check out all our resources, and email us at love@youthradio.org.

YR IN STASH MAGAZINE



YR IN THE TRIBUNE



WAR NEWS RADIO

"A Project From Swarthmore College"

"RAISING THE FLAG"

Coverage of war and politics can quickly devolve
into a haze of statistics, strategies, and expert
predictions. Lost are the real effects that policy
decisions have on real people around the world.

Earlier this month, Iraq’s government announced
a new temporary national flag. This week on War
News Radio, we hear the reaction of Iraqis in the
Kurdish North. And as US-backed Awakening
militias become more powerful in Iraq’s Sunni
provinces, we find out about a standoff between
the Awakening and Iraqi police in Diyala province.
In Iraq 101, we learn about the status of Iraq
legislation in the US Congress. And, in our series,
A Day in the Life, we speak with Beau Shelton,
an American veteran who’s adjusting to life as a
civilian elementary school teacher. These stories,
plus the week’s news, from War News Radio.

Youth Radio is an award-winning journalism program
and outlet for youth voices! Our mission is to promote
young people's intellectual, creative, and professional
growth through training and access to all media. Youth
Radio is based in the Bay Area, with bureaus in Los
Angeles, Washington D.C. and Atlanta, and reporters
everywhere in between and around the globe.

What's the New What Finale

After 25 weeks, Youth Radio’s weekly series What’s the New What? is ending. These stories explored trends from the perspective of Generation Y: sex without a condom; ombre; over-the-counter stimulants; dissonance music; yoga in juvenile halls; tasers as accessories; ads in Spanglish, and much more. We heard from youth reporters from around the country, including the San Francisco Bay Area, Maine, Atlanta, and Los Angeles. In our final episode, we set out to hear from young people about "Whats" that weren’t covered in our series.
