Sprouts
Sprouts Radio from the Grassroots is a 30-minute weekly program featuring radio programs produced at community radio stations or by other independent producers from across the country and sometimes around the world.
Do you know how many statues, monuments, or sacred sites are in your community? Do you know any of their history besides what is on the plaque? Inspired by events in Charlottesville, today’s episode of Sprouts will look at other tributes of significance around the United States. The “father of gynecology” in New York City did experimental procedures on black women; a continued movement in Columbus, OH to removed statues of Christopher Columbus; sacred sites threatened by the the Connecticut Transfer Expansion Pipeline (Gas).
