Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Earlier this month, the ACLU rejected over 1 million dollars in grant money from the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations. Why?

A look at funding concerns rippling through the nonprofit and university world.
Guests
- Stacy Palmer Editor, "Chronicle of Philanthropy"
