The article discusses that the summer of 1999 will be remembered by many progressives as the time of the great KPFA lockout--when Pacifica's, California, management tried to muzzle the nation's oldest community radio station. The effort was notable for the arrogance of the leaders of Pacifica's national board and its chairwoman, Mary Frances Berry. In the face of a popular uprising Berry ended the lockout. But the situation is far from secure. Berry and the rest of the board must also start negotiations to establish a new governing structure for the foundation.
