KPFA has to be right up there as one of my favorite on line listening posts.

Much of the stations programming is devoted to in depth coverage current events and politics.

Which brings us to Across the Great Divide, where music lyric overlaps with those other concerns.

The late Kate Wolf composed the tune that give the show its name.

While I don't recall that I've ever listened to KPFA the few times I've been in the Bay Area, here in Houston we have sister Pacifica station KPFT. Bombed off-the-air twice by the Klan and still broadcasting 24/7. Both areas are lucky to have them and deserve our support.

for the shout out to Kate Wolf. Met her in an apple orchard. I will always remember her songs. and Rosalie Sorrels is another great writer and wonderful spirit. Saw her with Utah Phillips.
