Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
D.C. Police officers respond to a shooting in 2017.
It’s “your turn” to set the agenda and share your views about conversations taking place in our region. Washington, D.C. experienced a violent weekend of shootings which left two dead and several others wounded. And, in a local courtroom, a Metropolitan Police Officer was spotted in a t-shirt with language and symbols local activists consider racist. In Virginia, the environment is splitting liberals over their support for the Democrat gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam. And conflicting reports surfaced about the future ownership of the area’s Major League Soccer franchise, D.C. United.
Join Kojo to discuss this region’s biggest stories, and call 800-433-8850 from 12-1 p.m. EST to share whatever’s on your mind.
