Someone You Should Know
KMOJ & Ampers will team up to produce Someone You Should Know, a series of short (60-second) radio segments that will feature stories from influential Black Minnesotans. The segments will highlight people who make or made a difference in their community, industry, education, the arts and more. The short segments will allow audience members to become familiar with these community members, their specific work, and issues that are important in their community.
The project will result in more locally and Minnesota-focused content produced by public radio than would exist if KMOJ didn't have this Legacy funding.
The project will give listeners a better understanding of Minnesota's African American history and culture and the people who shape it.
