Inspired AGAIN by our friends at @826neworleans @826national and their work with @cartoonnetworkofficial , we challenged Be Loud DJs to produce short radio segments that speak out against bullying. Although written in October for #NationalBullyingPreventionMonth, we believe there is no better time than now to hear from our DJs.

Listen to DJ Loud talk about being an upstander. “This can be hard, but we need to stop bullying” 👏👏👏

Before the election, we asked kids what they would want to do if elected mayor. From allowing kids to drive to sheltering the homeless, they wrote and recorded scripts on their vision for New Orleans. Listen to this 5th grade DJ’s wish to make the community more peaceful.

Too young for the official letter writing contest, but thought you should still hear them @mayorcantrell! #listentokids #futureleaders #beloudathome

Welcome back to the Be Loud Hot Seat 🔥 🔥 🔥

Be Loud DJs are interviewing local leaders, creators, and celebrities via Zoom, asking them questions about their life and learning from their unique experience.

From artists to athletes to doctors on the front lines, we believe it is powerful for our DJs to have a direct line to these people and stories, especially during this time of social distancing.

This month, we are interviewing candidates running for local elections. We interviewed @megformuni running for Municipal and Traffic Court judge in New Orleans. We learned about Meg’s campaign and her love for dogs. Thank you Meg for your patience and positive energy!

Hear the whole interview this Saturday on the Be Loud Radio Hour!

Big shout out to @ledeneworleans for jumping on our production call yesterday and talking to our DJs about how to develop fire questions for an interview. Our DJs then got to practice these crucial skills with LEDE fellow and journalist Alexis T. Reed. She offered so much wisdom, experience, and overall positive energy to our DJs- we are so grateful.

The interview will air next week on the Be Loud Radio Hour!
