Episode Notes
My guests include Dr. Christopher Davis, President of LeMoyne Owen College. He is reviving this historic HBCU and its recruitment efforts by forming a partnership with TN SW Community College. He shares with me how this came about and why it’s so important for students wanting the HBCU experience without leaving home. Next, when President Trump decided to dissolve the Department of Education many of us don’t know what that really means and more importantly, what it will mean for the future of education in this country and your public schools. Brian Stephens is the founder of Caissa K12 and an expert source on public schools. He breaks down how this decision will impact school districts nationwide, statewide and locally. Finally, we are all affected by high prices and inflation these days none more so than the farmers. Thomas Burrell is a farmer and the president of Black Farmers and Agriculturalists Association which is fighting for the rights of Black Farmers, their heirs and administrators who are being discriminated against the USDA. He tells me why this fight for justice is even more necessary today. That and more on air and online Monday, 6 pm on WYXR 91.7 FM. Also, WYXR.org, Tunein, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. It’s time to talk!
