January 8, 2023 - Long Journey / A Country Divided / My Take (Black Folk Music)
On this episode, David Wright takes an in-depth look and interviews one of the migrants who was sent to Martha’s Vineyard last September by Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida. Then, on the 2nd anniversary of the January 6th insurrection we take another look at how it exposed the deep divisions in the country and the similarities between that event and Abraham Lincoln’s journey from Illinois to Washington for his first inauguration as the country was on the verge of Civil war. Finally, in our continuing My Take series, Providence based musician Jake Blount gives us his take on the often-forgotten history of Black Folk Music.
