A look back at my media and podcast appearances in 2020

As the year comes to a close, I invite all of you to join me and look back at my 2020 media and podcast appearances. Thank you all for your continued support, and here’s to a (hopefully) better new year.

WTHR Coverage

In the wake of George Floyd’s murder and the widespread protests that ensued, WTHR reached out to me because of my coverage of the Emmett Till murder trial 65 years ago.
