Aug 26, 2020 - Milagros Philips and Samba Baldeh - Race Literacy/Gambian-American elected official

Milagros Philips and Samba Baldeh appear on the  inaugural
POH Talk Radio show, Thursday, August 20, 8p eastern standard
time. To call in, dial or click "Current Show" to hear or to
write a comment. It all starts Thursday, August 20, 2020.

At the start of the program, we talk with Milagros Phillips. She
is a speaker, author, and coach, who has spent the past 20 years
facilitating race literacy programs.  We will talk about
“Experiencing Racism in Two Languages with Jim Crow and
Colonization” based on her Port and Harlem article and her unique
experience being a bi-lingual Dominican-American.

At 8:30p, we talk with Samba Baldeh, who has run for office twice
and won both races.  Last Tuesday, he won nearly 50 percent
of the vote in a four-person race and is on his way to become the
first Muslim in the Wisconsin state assembly and probably the
first Gambian-American in any state legislature. We featured
Baldeh in “Samba Baldeh Seeks to Become Wisconsin’s First
Gambian-American State Legislature.”
