also may have a special guest who I am waiting to see if they are available. The special guest is Rep. Marsha Blackburn. Her office and I are working on finalizing the details and if she is on we will extend the show for another hour so it will be a live interview. This is not finalized but it looks pretty likely.
Topic is Racism.
Prom Night in Mississippi movie aired on HBO and is based in the hometown of Actor Morgan Freeman. First time that the small delta town of Charleston Ms. had a prom that allowed blacks and whites to attend, but as could be expected it was met with some resistence. We will discuss this movie but will also go beyond it to discuss racism in our nation. We here in Arizona have our own racism that is causing problems that are very much like the racism that is shown in the film as well as the racism I saw growing up. As always your calls will be welcomed.
