#rbnews international show 17 November 2012

By @IrateGreekOn the #rbnews international show on 17 November 2012, our guest was Joanna Kakissis, journalist with National Public Radio and Time magazine. We discussed the commemoration of the 1973 Polytechnic University uprising, the delay in the disbursement of Greece’s latest tranche of bailout loans, and the independence (or not) of the Greek judiciary. You can follow Joanna on Twitter @joannakakissisIn tribute to the 1973 Polytechnic uprising but also to celebrate World Tolerance Day on 16 November, we played songs from “Our Great Circus”, an anti-Junta musical first performed in Athens in the summer of 1973. The promotion of World Tolerance Day is supported by the 1 Against Racism network.
