Flashpoint: Flyers mute Kate Smith, Haircut4 homeless goes viral and Mingle Mocktails

from Bridging Philly · host Audacy

Host and KYW Newsradio community affairs reporter Cherri Gregg asks the burning questions about the Kate Smith controversy. Last week, the Philadelphia Flyers announced it would no longer play the late singer's rendition of "God Bless America" after learning that she recorded several songs with blatantly racist lyrics. Our newsmaker of the week is Jawuan Jones also known as @Haircut4homless on social media. The Philadelphia Barber made national news recently when a video of police questioning him about his free hair cuts for homeless individuals went viral.  Laura Taylor, Founder of Mingle Mocktails is the changemaker of the week.  Flashpoint airs every Saturday at 9:30pm and Sunday at 8:30am on KYW Newsradio.  See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.
