Myla Reson ‍Staff Pacifica National Board Rep

I’m Myla Reson, running for reelection to represent staff and team volunteers on the PNB with Pacifica Forward candidates.

Along with Harvey Wasserman I co-produce California Solartopia/the Solartopia Show on KPFK & the Pacifica Affiliate Network.

With Earth at the brink of Apocalypse, energy issues dominate California, the nation & the world. California Solartopia breaks down our fiercest ecological battles — nuclear threats, defending wetlands, stopping plastics, fracking, and the political cronyism gutting nuclear safety while attacking solar/wind/geothermal/battery solutions.

Working together with national board directors from Pacifica’s five sister stations and the Pacifica Affiliate Network we’ve ended three years of litigation with court approved bylaws that empower members to vote directly for the national and local station boards.

Our combined efforts have resulted in reducing Pacifica’s overall debt with greater financial accountability.
We’re rebuilding Pacifica’s national news with our 5 sister stations and 200 plus affiliates.
I see our news coverage as the crown jewel in our media project.

I’ve often said I was educated at the University of Pacifica Radio. That education began over 60 years ago when I was still in high school listening to the music of Paul Robeson and Pete Seegar on KPFK.
I owe a great debt of gratitude to the many thoughtful and provocative programmers who over the years helped me understand the importance of working together to make our world a better place. I support the editorial freedom of Pacifica Staff.

I ask that you vote for me, as well as all candidates endorsed by Pacifica Forward for their records of service and teamwork.
