Posted on August 17, 2017 • by Mitch Perry

On the program today we spoke with Joan C. Williams, professor and director of the Center for WorkLife Law at UC Hastings in San Francisco, and the author of “White Working Class: Overcoming Class Cluelessness in America.”

We also spoke with St. Petersburg City Council District 6 City Council candidates Justin Bean and Gina Driscoll, and with Hillsborough County Commissioner Pat Kemp, regarding Wednesday’s vote by the BOCC to maintain the Confederate monument unless $140,000 is privately raised in the next month.
