Radio Uprising is The Art Effect's exciting radio production program that gives youth producers the opportunity to express themselves creatively via the airwaves!
Radio Uprising gives youth the opportunity to engage in politics, social action, and become more involved in their community via independent and grassroots media production. Youth explore the media as a public platform for community dialogue, giving them the chance to make their voices heard using the power of the media.
Radio Uprising also features work from other youth radio producers from around the country; past shared work has come from Blunt Youth Radio Project, Global Action Project, the Bay Area Video Coalition, Radio Rootz, and Reel Grrls.

Radio Uprising Remote Edition, Ep. 4: Change!
In this week's edition of Radio Uprising, youth DJs Nazir and Lamar ponder the meaning of "change" in these unprecedented times. Among the topics discussed are how the quarantine has altered people's impressions of seasons changing, how climate change has become more noticeable with everyone staying at home, how the quarantine has made spring and summer feel like wintertime (we're all still hunkering down), how the concept of summer vacation and summer jobs is changing, how the paradigm of public education hasn't changed much since its inception (unlike other fields such as medicine or manufacturing), and what everyone will be changing as a result of the growing they've done over the course of the pandemic. Lamar also discusses his new "code" of principles for staying productive and creative during this crisis. Finally, everyone discussed the possibility of humanity growing more and more cyborg-like and change their bodies to contain machine or robotic parts... and how they feel about it!
