Jean Feraca's radio show, "Here On Earth: Radio Without Borders," Wisconsin Public Radio. May 21st interview of Annie Lanzillotto about her performance work which examines the squashing of Streetcries by NYC Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia's 1936 injunction: "Rule 23: No Shouting or Hawking by Vendors nor Abusive and Lewd Language." Lanzillotto collects streetcries from around the world, old and new recordings. Special guest, singer/songwriter DuPree, takes a South Carolina flower cry, and vocally transforms it, giving an ethnomusicology perspective on race and peddling.
