Mbanna Kantako speaks about the creation of WTRA (Tenants' Rights Association), the first micropower radio station in the U.S., the evolution of his political consciousness, and with that evolution, the transition of the station from WTRA to Black Liberation Radio, to African Liberation Radio to, finally, Human Rights Radio. Recorded at the University of Illinois on Feb. 19th, 1998. Human Rights Radio is the longest-airing high-profile pirate radio station in the United States, in Springfield, IL.
