Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Virginia is home to roughly 200,000 Muslims, the majority of whom are concentrated in the Washington region. Some speculate this population could sway this year’s election both in the commonwealth and nationwide – in 2012, Mitt Romney lost to Barack Obama by fewer than 150,000 votes. We explore how the anti-Islamic rhetoric of this year’s presidential election is playing out in the commonwealth.
