We shall not! We shall not be moved!

Just like a fool …does things that he regrets
Calm down and cool your jets!  (chorus)

This is not the way  to “Save KPFA”!
No! This is not the way  to “Save KPFA”!
Just like a despot… wants us to obey
This is not the way!  (chorus)

This is rash and reckless, and causes disarray!
This is rash and reckless, and causes disarray!
Just like a traitor… knows how to betray!
We will not obey! (chorus)

These are the lyrics of a song sung at the door of the Pacifica National Office on 4-03-14 in the third week of an occupation in support of Pacifica Executive Director Summer Reese. Her 3 year contract was “terminated” without notice to the Pacifica National Board at an illegal “executive rump session,” without a performance review or cause stated as per the contract, and after two years of solid service as interim Executive Director.  The action of the so-called “Save KPFA” clique threatens the financial well-being and organizational stability of the entire network.  As the song says, “This is not the way to “Save KPFA!”   The other four stations turned in their audited annual books.  But KPFA has refused to do so and this is causing great speculation about their financial integrity at this rogue branch where the power coup was led.  KPFA station and the Pacifica National Office are side-by- side on the same block on MLK Way.
