The story of the Wizard of Oz has inspired people for generations. And now it’s back again, this time as an animated series on the Boomerang channel. We talk to the actress who plays Dorothy about her journey from small-town Kansas to being the voice behind "the ultimate Kansas girl."
Then: the first National African-American Quilt Convention kicks off today in Lawrence. We dive into the historical significance of the craft, and two artists share how quilting can be revolutionary.
Guests:
- Karl Wahlgren, voice animation actress, "Dorothy & The Wizard of Oz"
- Sonié Ruffin, local quilt artist and storyteller
- Adrienne Walker Hoard, artist and Professor of Art History, African American Art History and Black Studies, UMKC
