Amy Goodman in Paonia

The Silenced Majority book cover

Award-winning progressive journalist Amy Goodman, the host of Democracy Now! (heard weekdays at 6 pm on KVNF,) visited Paonia Saturday, Oct. 5th, and spoke before an enthusiastic audience at the Paradise Theatre. The event was a fund-raiser for KVNF & High Country News.

Goodman's Paonia appearance, one of four in Colorado that day, was part of a 100-city tour that Democracy Now has undertaken, between the national political conventions and Election Day. Goodman & co-author Dennis Moynihan, who accompanied her Saturday, are promoting their new book, "The Silenced Majority: Stories of Uprisings, Occupations, Resistance, and Hope."

A native Texan, Jeff was bitten by the Colorado "bug" after graduating from UT-Austin. He arrived in Paonia on the October full moon of 1978, and has been involved with KVNF since its earliest days. His first KVNF show was "Sunday Night Live," which featured live musicians performing in the original Garvin Mesa garage/studio.
