Submit ReviewThis week on Strange Fruit, UofL student Brina Joiner traveled to Ferguson, and stops by our studio to tell us what she saw there that we aren't seeing on the news. We also speak with Patrisse Cullors, of Dignity and Power Now, about the Freedom Ride to Ferguson she's co-organizing with our friend Darnell Moore. They're traveling as part of the Black Lives Matter movement, and while there are many ways to help, she says being there to protest in person has its own importance: "There's nothing like having and actual body on the front lines with you to say I am here with you. I am your ally. I am not going anywhere." And we check in with a St. Louis area food bank to see how the unrest (and delayed school year) is affecting food security and hunger in their community. Strange Fruit posts on Friday afternoon at strangefruitpod.org, and airs Saturday nights at 10pm on 89.3 WFPL.
