Talk Of The Neighborhoods

On the first half, State Senate President Pro Tempore William Brownsberger (D-Belmont) joins us to talk about his work at the statehouse and his upcoming Democratic Primary campaign for re-election to the Suffolk and Middlesex district, including all of Allston and Brighton, and most of the Fenway in Boston. The district also includes the towns of Belmont and Watertown, and a small portion of Cambridge. He is being challenged by Dan Lander, a senior policy advisor to Mayor Michelle Wu. Then on the second half, former Senator Dianne Wilkerson joins us to talk about up her upcoming appearance and presentation at a high profile TedX community forum in Roxbury and her thoughts on how elected officials could better serve the city's communities of color.
