PRI Highlights Brooklyn's Bustling Haitian Radio Scene

Via a lively episode of podcast Afropops.

The Aug. 9 episode of Afropops, a new PRI podcast produced and hosted by Ian Coss, focuses on the crazy number of Haitian radio stations broadcasting out of Brooklyn. There are around a half-dozen, clustered in and around a stretch of Nostrand Ave. in Flatbush.

Haitian music courses throughout the 15-minute report as Coss retraces the growth of the Haitian immigrant community in the U.S. and speaks to people like John Anderson, an assistant professor of broadcast journalism at Brooklyn College who is writing a book on radio regulation.
