This benefit to celebrate Media Alliance’s 30 years of working for a more just media system, Alternative Radio — Another World is Possible will unite the musical talents of the Kronos Quartet with conversation between Tariq Ali and David Barsamian. Tariq Ali is the author of several books including Pirates of the Caribbean: Axis of Hope (Verso, 2006) and Bush in Babylon (Verso, 2003). David Barsamian is the host of Alternative Radio (heard locally on KALW). The format will mimic a live radio broadcast, with Kronos performing musical selections throughout, which reflect on and react to the ideas presented.
There will be a wine reception following with the speakers and musicians.
Tickets: $35 General Admission, $65 Reception + VIP Seating
