KC CURRENTS 6-17-2007

By Ty Chandler, Alex Smith and Sylvia Maria Gross

Kansas City, MO – Alvin Brooks talks about life after City Hall and reviving the Ad Hoc Group Against Crime. Plus, we examine the controversy over Mayor Mark Funkhouser's appointment of member of the Minuteman Project to the Parks and Rec Board of Commissioners, and we visit a local record label that produces Indian classical music albums.

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

Your support makes KCUR's work possible — from reporting that keeps officials accountable, to storytelling that connects our community. You can make sure the future of local journalism is strong.
