Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A 2017 protest descends up on the house of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, in D.C.'s Kalorama neighborhood.
Advisory Neighborhood Commissions are the most local form of government in the District of Columbia. For the Kalorama neighborhood, this means a hyperlocal representative is now serving a former president, a current first daughter and one of the White House’s most high-profile senior advisers. Kojo chats with David Bender, the ANC chair for the part of the city that Barack Obama and Ivanka Trump now call home – which is experiencing a unique set of challenges accommodating its new neighbors.
