Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Rebecca Roberts
It’s been one year since the Wanda Alston House opened in Northeast DC — one of the only programs in the city targeting homeless gay, lesbian, and transgender youth. Serving this community — whose struggles with HIV/AIDS and violence are often invisible to the broader public — can be a big challenge. We learn more about the Wanda Alston House.
Guests
- Brian Watson Director of Programs, Transgender Health Empowerment (THE); President, D.C. Coalition of Black LGBT Men and Women
