Step into history this Wednesday morning as legendary 1960s Civil Rights Activist Willie Mukasa Ricks joins our classroom. Mukasa Ricks, who marched shoulder to shoulder with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture), brings a powerful, first-hand perspective to the urgent report on the abduction of Nicolas Maduro. Before Mukasa Ricks delivers his insights, we’ll also speak with the Faith Brothers. We will also honor the resilience of Altadena, California, by reflecting on the anniversary of its wildfires, with Rochelle Jones sharing her moving story. Plus, Baltimore activist Kim Poole will ignite our global consciousness by previewing her transformative trips to Kenya and Somaliland. This is not just another broadcast—it’s The Big Show, your gateway to critical conversations and change.
