If you watched KCPT's and Mike Shanin's weekly news program "Ruckus" again this evening, once more, you would think that the Kansas City metropolitan area has not one "person of color" within its borders. Not one Black American, not one Hispanic, not one Asian, nothing. Zip, Nada.
Fortunately, they did have three women on their panel--again, very white--so there's something but the rest? White men, mostly old. All three of the men are clearly Right Wing being one Libertarian and the other two deeply Right Wing.
It really does seem as though no minority person's experience nor opinion matter either to this organization, the local PBS station, or to this city.
And once more, part of the panel discussion was about our just-passed November election. Clearly they think no person in this metropolitan area has any input worth giving to the voting and all its ramifications?
Is there not one person in this city that couldn't be included on this little, cozy club?
Really?
Their name does stand for Kansas City Public Broadcasting. Right?
