Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Dorothea Lange’s “Migrant Mother” is one of the most iconic images of the Great Depression. Though she went on to document other powerful moments in American history, including Japanese internment camps during World War II, few know her later work. We’ll talk about the life and career of one of America’s most influential photojournalists.
