Welcome to the Mini Apple

On this week’s episode... It’s Minneapolis Day! Lee is officially a Minnesotan! He gives us his first impressions of his new city and, with the Derek Chauvin trial beginning, what it’s like to move here at this particular moment in history. Plus, Paige takes us inside what’s going on in the local Black arts scene. Then we reflect on Black History Month at Minnesota Opera, and as always we’ll send you into the weekend with a PB&J: a moment of Pure Black Joy.Hosts: Lee Bynum, Rocky Jones, Paige ReynoldsProducer: Rocky JonesTimestamps:Welcome to MPLS, Lee! - 00:53A New Space for Black Table Arts - 19:48Black History Month Reflections - 32:08PB&J - 51:23Links:Black Table Arts: https://www.blacktablearts.com/Alanna Morris Van-Tassel (Black Light Research): https://www.alannamvt.com/Superhero Fitness TV: https://www.youtube.com/user/superherofitnesstv/videosIf you like what you hear, please support us and SUBSCRIBE to the show on your favorite podcast app and be sure to SHARE our show with your friends.
