Description

Why does the hymn, “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” spark debate? We discuss what its author, James Weldon Johnson of Great Barrington, really intended.

Towns in Berkshire County never added fluoride to drinking water. Is this a good thing or a missed opportunity?

Plus, we reflect on the life of Bishop Bryant Robinson who demonstrated calm in the face of adversity.

This week’s panel includes Jim Kinney, reporter at the Springfield Republican; political consultant Ryan McCollum; and Berkshire Eagle reporter Heather Bellow.
