Kojo For Kids: Illustrator And Author Brian Pinkney
For Martin Luther King Day, we hear from an artist who makes civil rights heroes leap off the page.
In 2014, a “Red Wave” brought Republicans their biggest majority in the House of Representatives since 1928. But even as the G.O.P made advances in traditional Democratic suburban strongholds, the District and nearby inner suburbs remain a deep shade of blue. So what does the Republican platform offer for these urban voters? And how can local Republicans make the case for urban policy within their party, when many members of the caucus hail from rural districts? Kojo looks at urban politics and policy from a Republican perspective.
