Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A fashion boutique on U Street in Northwest D.C.
The District has long had a reputation for being a city full of people with a staid fashion sense. Politicians, lawyers, government workers and officials get a bad rap for being…well, boring. So much so, that three separate WAMU listeners used our ‘What’s With Washington?’ portal to ask some version of the question: Why don’t Washingtonians take more fashion risks? We’ve been asking experts for their opinion on the matter – and want to hear yours.
