Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
In an increasingly affluent city, the challenge of helping the homeless is more political than ever. We look at how one D.C. neighborhood is grappling with the balance between humanitarianism and homeowners’ rights. Plus, we explore the latest twist in the debate over saving a historically significant — yet unattractive — building. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of the District of Columbia.
