Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
The overwhelming majority of African-American voters shifted allegiance from the Republican Party to the Democrats with the Kennedy administration, and now the number of Black conservative and independent voices seems to be increasing. As part of our Black History Month series, Kojo and panelists discuss the evolution of Black politics.
