Karen Vogelsang, Rachael Goodwin Spriggs, and Willie Simon

Guests include Karen Vogelsang, former long time educator and the final member of the new MSCS Oversight management board. She tells me why she said yes and why this is a challenging yet necessary step forward for the future of our children’s education.  Next, The Souls to the Polls event was recently held to inform and educate the public about the redistricting issue and how critical it is for people to gather, galvanize, unify and understand what is at stake. Rachael Goodwin Spriggs, education advocate and statewide director of power-building for the Equity Alliance was a participant and joins me to talk about the important role millennials can play in the upcoming election. Last but not least, Shelby County Democratic Party Chairman Willie Simon joins me to talk about both the challenge and the opportunity to get people to the polls and why their voices do matter. That and more, on air and online Monday, 6-7pm on 91.7 FM WYXR. Also, the WYXR app, Tunein, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. It’s time to talk!
