On Thursday, September 3 at 8pm EST, We Talk Productions presents
Port Of Harlem Talk Radio. Host Wayne A. Young talks with Dr. Ida
Jones, University Archivist at Morgan State University, and
Sandra Schulberg, president and executive director of

Convention, that debuts in virtual cinemas through Kino Marquee

In the second half hour, Young will talk with Melvin Foote,
president of the Constituency for Africa, about the current U.S.
President’s Africa agenda, or lack thereof. Foote will also share
what advocates for Africa should be demanding from candidates
regarding policies toward the homeland.

Jones, one of the next show's first guests, is also the author of
four biographies including "Baltimore Civil Rights Leader,
Victorine Quille Adams and the Power of the Ballot.” She
took preserving Adam’s legacy a step further and did what was

Legacy program for Port Of Harlem and the Alexandria Black
History Museum.

credit.

individuals committed to the progress and empowerment of Africa
and African people worldwide. The Washington, DC based
organization continues to build public and private support for
Africa, and help shape a progressive U.S. policy towards
Africa.
