Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Congress is debating new immigration policies, thousands are taking part in Immigrant Rights’ rallies today, and many say America is on the verge of the next great Civil Rights Movement. Kojo looks at how Hispanic organizations are following (or not following) the lead of traditional civil rights groups in their demand for poverty alleviation, fair wages, and basic equality.
