With love we salute the life of the mighty Zin

On Sunday, Jan. 3, 2016, in Denver, at approximately 2:20 pm Houston father, activist, radio station owner and musician Zin aka Anthony Mills, 42, and Jonathan Nichols, 29, lost their lives in a four-car collision. Akua Holt, a good friend and radio comrade of Zin, worked with him on KPFT and in the community. I talked to her about the power of our productive and constructive brother who lost his life far too soon.

KPFA subscribers, be sure to vote for a Local Station Board...

Since 1949, KPFA has been bringing incisive political analysis, vital cultural perspectives, and an amazing variety of music to the Bay Area and beyond.

As the voice of the progressive left, KPFA is an example of "‘citizens’ media" that enables the powerless to shape media and make it a new social force.
