- Hello Friends & Supporters:
- June 9, 2007 was 11 years since the program “21st Century Conversations” has been on the air in Greater
New Haven. In 2004 we added N’Zinga’s Journal (a program for specific audiences) and we incorporated
production and teaching efforts and became OneWorld Progressive Institute, Inc., a 501©3 community
development, charitable organization.
- With the aid of several people -- the volunteers who work every month to put and keep the programs on
the air, the technical folks who help to give us a finish product, and those who serve as board members
and advisors-- we have accomplished several things. We shared those accomplishments with all of you,
and with the broader community through a live, 10th anniversary TV program, at CTV, 7:30 - 9PM on June
15, 2006. Watch our programs on your local access TV station.
- We are growing; please join us, and help to make a POSITIVE Difference.
- Special thanks to Walter Mann of NHTV, Thomas Castelot of Sound View TV, and all of the other public
access stations for their help and support, and for helping OneWorld, Inc. to get its programs out to the
broader community, and for being kind to "an out of network producer." To all the student volunteers
from North Haven High School and the wonderful volunteers who come to CTV every month to work on the
programs, 12 years would not have been possible without your dedication to independent TV production.
- Check our TV Schedule Page for station times; www.7towntv.org gives times for all shoreline stations.
- Citizens Television is the home station for "21st Century Conversations."
- You can still order a copy of our 10th anniversdary program, or any other program.
- The Citizens Television (CTV) studio is located at 2666 State Street in Hamden. The phone number is (203)
562-2288. OneWorld also gets significant technical support from NHTV & Walter Mann.
- 2007 marked another milestone for OneWorld Progressive Institute, Inc.; our flagship television program:
“21st Century Conversations” was been picked up by many other stations in Fairfield and New Haven
Counties. If you do not see our program on your access station, please ask them to carry it; it cost
nothing for them to get it.
- Starting Sun. Jan. 6, 2008, "21st Century Conversations" is scheduled to air on CTV, Comcast 26 at 6PM
on Sundays. We thank all of you who wrote letters and signed petitions, for caring about our work and its
benefits to the community. If you do not see the program at 6PM, call CTV at 203-562-2288
- The program can also be seen in Fairfield, Bridgeport, Stratford, Milford, Orange and Woodbridge at 8PM
on Sundays. It also airs on Comcast in all nine Valley Towns, and on Charter Communications 21, in all
14 mid-western towns. We hope to have it on the air in the Danbury, Bethel, Ridgefield and Farmington
Valley areas, and in other areas of Hartford sometime in 2008.
- Please help us to achieve much broader distribution of our informative programs. If you have friends,
relatives co-workers, or associates who live in other areas, please ask them to request that "21st Century
Conversations" be carried on their local access stations.
- Once the programs are seen, the feedback is very positive. Our recent programs Health Care Literacy have
received rave reviews. A major challenge is to get a higher level of visibility in a much wider market. With
your support, we hope to do that and to continue making an increasingly meaningful contribution to CT's
inner-cities in particular.
- We want to eliminate health care disparities; it is costing us too many young, vibrant lives.
- Let us all work together to improve the educational skills & knowledge of all of our children; the future of
all of CT & the USA depend on it.
- Mentoring Initiative: We launched a mentoring initiative in Sept. 2006. We are asking African-
American & Hispanic health care professionals and all who care about improving the future for
poor children to mentor an African-American, Hispanic, or poor child and help them to
recognize health care as a potential career
