'Rokker Radio' is presented by Jake Bowers every Sunday evening.
Jake is one of Britain's only Romani journalists and is
a regular contributor to the Guardian and BBC Radio 4.
The show focuses on the issues affecting the whole of the travelling
community and provides an opportunity for them to talk about subjects which are rarely aired outside the community.
The station hopes that by reporting their stories in a balanced
way some of the myths about Gypsies and Travellers will be dispelled.
Presenter Jake Bowers says: "Rokker Radio is the only programme
for Traveller communities on UK radio, and I think it will be the first time since the 1930's that the BBC has broadcast programming
which is actually produced by a rural ethnic minority."
Rokker Radio will broadcast every Sunday between 7.00 and 9.00pm
on BBC Three Counties Radio. |
