KC CURRENTS 5-28-06

By Delores Jones, Laura Ziegler, and Sylvia Maria Gross

Kansas City, MO – The Kansas City, Missouri School Board selects Anthony Amato to head KC schools, in a process open to the public. Producers Sarah and David Chavez, of Olathe, discuss the National Council of La Raza's ALMA Awards for Latino entertainers. (Pictured are Desperate Housewives' Eva Longoria and NCLR's Janet Murguia). Plus, comedian Bill Cosby at Penn Valley Community College, and listener responses to last week's interview on medical ethics.

KCUR is here for Kansas City, because Kansas City is here for KCUR.
