Enjoy a blast from radio’s dramatic past – and an interview with me – on WAMU-FM’s popular weekly show, The Big Broadcast.  This week on a show which features programs from radio’s heyday, will present an episode from Richard Durham’s inventive Destination Freedom series (1948-1950) about African American heroes and heroines.

The Big Broadcast will feature Durham’s “Negro Cinderella” episode, a fascinating drama about the life of famed actress, singer and activist Lena Horne.  Before the broadcast of this drama, The Big Broadcast host Murray Horwitz will interview me about Durham’s legacy.

So tune in at 9pm on this Sunday, September 16th to hear this compelling segment.  If you miss tonight’s broadcast, click on the link below to hear these show segments at your convenience.
