520 8  When Breeze FM Radio, in the provincial Zambian town of 
       Chipata, hired an elderly retired school teacher in 2003, 
       no one anticipated the skyrocketing success that would 
       follow. A self-styled grandfather on air, Gogo Breeze 
       seeks intimacy over the airwaves and dispenses advice on a
       wide variety of grievances and transgressions. Multiple 
       voices are broadcast and juxtaposed through call-ins and 
       dialogue, but free speech finds its ally in the radio 
       elder who, by allowing people to be heard and supporting 
       their claims, reminds authorities of their obligations 
       toward the disaffected. Harri Englund provides a 
       masterfully detailed study of this popular radio 
       personality that addresses broad questions of free speech 
       in Zambia and beyond. By drawing on ethnographic insights 
       into political communication, Englund presents multivocal 
       morality as an alternative to dominant Euro-American 
       perspectives, displacing the simplistic notion of voice as
       individual personal property an idea common in both policy
       and activist rhetoric. Instead, Englund focuses on the 
       creativity and polyphony of Zambian radio while raising 
       important questions about hierarchy, elderhood, and ethics
       in the public sphere. A lively, engaging portrait of an 
       extraordinary personality, Gogo Breeze will interest 
       Africanists, scholars of radio and mass media, and anyone 
       interested in the history and future of free speech
