KALW’s Crosscurrents Features Voice of Witness

Posted on June 7, 2011

This spring, as editors Maggie Lemere and Zoe West joined the Voice of Witness team in San Francisco to launch Nowhere to Be Home, the group also had the opportunity to meet with KALW intern Holly McDede. Holly took time to learn about the Voice of Witness series from its staff, editors, volunteers and interns, creating a feature for the KALW radio program Crosscurrents.

Voice of Witness is a nonprofit book series that empowers those most closely affected by contemporary social injustice. Using oral history as a foundation, the series depicts human rights crises around the world through the stories of the men and women who experience them. Voice of Witness was founded by author Dave Eggers and physician/human rights scholar Lola Vollen, and is the nonprofit division of McSweeney's Books.
