Tamarques Porter, Beverly Robertson, Jasmine Bernard

We are back with a live and all new Real Talk Memphis; my guests include Beverly Robertson. She is a well established community leader and businesswoman. Now, she is taking on a new challenge as an appointed member of the MSCS Oversight board as chosen by Governor Lee. She joins me to talk about why she accepted the offer and the challenges that might lie ahead. Speaking of the MSCS School Board, member Tamarques Porter will join me to offer his thoughts and reaction. Another question is just how much authority they will now have as the elected body. Lastly, as of late, we hear more about our young people but for the wrong reasons it seems. I will introduce you to a 17-year old young woman, Jasmine Bernard who is making sure that people know that being young doesn’t mean being unaware. She is a community activist who has a lot to say. That and more both on air and online Monday, 6pm on 91.7 FM WYXR. Also, the WYXR app, Tunein, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. It’s time to talk!
