Representation

from Up North Lowdown

We're talking about representation today. In one sense, it's literal representation — who will fill the open state Senate seat in Michigan's 35th District? It's far away from Up North, but the ramifications of today's special election could be felt statewide. We also hear from Classical IPR's Isabel Li, whose new podcast — AAPI Classical Musicians of Interlochen — looks at the musical contributions made by Asian Americans, Pacific Islander Americans and Native Hawaiians. Plus, we hear Dan Wanschura lead a room full of people in an owl call at the end of the episode. (They do pretty well, actually.)
