Politics, Virus, Panic, and Much More

We had the pleasure of having Andrea Benjamin on our Podcast...She has studied both National and Durham politics, and has some powerful views about our Political system....And, of course, like everyone else the Corona Virus was on her mind....This all lead  to a very interesting discussion for about a hour that covered a number of topics...We also heard from the Laughter Liberator who believes in the power of humor, and Dr. Lipi Roy who gave some very solid advice about what to do and the importance of sanitizing and washing hands......In additon to these three, we also had the pleasure of hearing from Tanya Brooks out of Los Angeles who was about to be honored for her Decades of work in the Entertainment field and for her work in discovering talented youths and getting them properly trained in the arts.......

Originally scheduled was  Mr. Walter Greason who I learned about through Sree's New York Times Readalong Sunday program....Walter David Greason is the Chief Executive Officer for the International Center for Metropolitan Growth, a firm that specializes in starting and attracting new businesses to markets in North America.  His two books, Suburban Erasure: How the Suburbs Ended the Civil Rights Movement in New Jersey and The Path to Freedom: Black Families in New Jersey, connect undiscovered local elements of the black freedom movement with global trends in economic development.  www.waltergreason.com.   We are working to get him rescheduled
