This is our one year anniversary of The Yay!! Special thanks to everyone who listens and has contributed to this show - I can't thank you enough. Norman Gee is back from France (where he performed the Lucia Berlin Stories) and we welcome acclaimed actress and singer Crystal Brown, who graced the stage two weeks ago for Anton's Well performing The Human Ear (at the Central Works' stage). We cover a whole plethora of topics: Bill Cosby, Kanye West, the Lynching Museum in Alabama and Trump's upcoming Race Summit. Crystal also shares her background, her training in music and theater in Paris and London, and her career as a creative artist in the bay.
