Sabrina Artel's Trailer Talk can now be heard every Friday at 2pm on WJFF Radio Catskill 90.5FM in Jeffersonville, New York.
Trailer Talk is a public conversation that always includes many more people during the live event than are included in the audio program. In all cases the audio program which is the secondary component of the Trailer Talk project is only a portion of the conversations shared at my mobile kitchen table. I am grateful to all of the participants during Trailer Talk both inside and outside of the trailer. Everyone who participates in Trailer Talk is important to both the live and the recorded audio event. Thanks so much to everyone for joining in on the conversations!

Details: D.C. Inauguration, I Was There! 1.23.09  I am bursting with my time in D.C. for three days during the Inauguration. I have never experienced that kind of group event which was undeniably a shift to another era in American history. There were so many levels of celebration and of engagement during my days there that I was filled with an optimism and pride for the USA that surprised me. I recorded for days and this first in the series of audio pieces from my conversations there takes place on Sunday night in the kitchen of a family in Takoma Park and on Monday, Martin Luther King Day where I attended an Afro-Pop House Party and not only danced to amazing African music but spoke with percussionist, Atta Addo from Ghana who was playing for Obama on Inauguration Day about the role of his music and what his family is saying about Obama in Ghana. The roar and also the concentration of the crowds on Inauguration Day was one which seemed to say, that the collective we really did make this possible and Obama representing more than himself but the potential of a movement converged to make the shift undeniable. Thank you Jane Welna and Robert Fox for being such generous hosts!
