Corrine Brown’s redistricting story affect us all
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
A story appeared in my Facebook feed that drew my attention. It was a piece by Roland Martin on NewsOne Now. The story was explosive for many reasons. I waited to see if it would get major coverage on any of the networks. If it did, I did not see it.
One thing for sure is that the story is at the core of our Democracy. Yet Donald Trump’s shenanigans took precedence.
Before I go to the blog of the week I have a few house keeping issues to take care of.
Firstly, I want to thank some generous people who have pledged to KPFT on behalf of Politics Done Right.
- Anonymous (3)
Rest assured KPFT will be good stewards of your donations and membership to this station. Please continue to pledge as the fund drive is still active and we are way behind. You can pledge here -> (https://pledge.kpft.org/index.php?id=polright).
Secondly, everyone that can hear me over the air should consider the following.
The Houston Peace and Justice Center’s annual Peacemaker Awards Dinner is Saturday, Nov. 14. Investigative Journalist Chris Hedges, who you’ve heard multiple times on KPFT, will receive HPJC’s national peacemaker award and give the keynote address at the dinner. Three local peacemakers will also receive awards and give brief presentations. In addition, Sissy Farenthold is hosting a special reception for Hedges and the local peacemakers at her home, the afternoon before the dinner. Advance reservations are required, and limited seats are available. Go to http://www.hpjc.org/dinner2015 for more details and to get tickets for the dinner and reception.
What are your thoughts? Let’s talk. I will also be following our hashtag #PoliticsDoneRight on Twitter @EgbertoWillies. Give me a call, listen to the live stream, or listen to the podcast/vlogcast.
