This week, we’re participating in a national week of conversation along with other NPR Member stations called A Nation Engaged. It’s a coordinated conversation around a topic, and the goal is to get a wide variety of voices answering the same question.
We’re asking this question: What can we do to create economic opportunities for more Americans?
Earlier this week, we heard from people attending the Dixie Area Business Expo and recruiters at a career fair organized by the workforce agency KentuckianaWorks.
This time, WFPL’s Roxanne Scott went to the Smoketown GetDown, a block party organized by Kentuckians for the Commonwealth.
She spoke with Casey Hamm, Trinidad Jackson, Kevin Cowherd, Robert Bell and Ashley Carter.
