Description

Episode Notes My guests include LaTricea Adams, founder and president of Young, Gifted and Green. They are an environmental justice organization that influences policy change through political advocacy, mentorship, and training. We recently heard that 24 MSCS schools were found with excessive amounts of lead in the water. She explains the dangers of lead exposure and what needs to happen to keep students safe. Next, Rise Memphis empowers people to become self-sufficient by building and sustaining human and financial assets. Their executive director Malcom Rawls explains how they do that and why it’s so important. Finally, the City of West Memphis is on the rise in a very big way. I ask their Mayor, Marco McClendon to share the latest projects and how they got one of the biggest travel center franchises in the country! That and more both on air and online Monday, 6 pm on 91.7 WYXR. Also, the wyxr app, TuneIn, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. It’s time to talk!
