KMOJ's Community Viewpoint

The 4 Opinions and guest Marques Armstrong, Shaundelle Darris, Farji Shaheer, and mother Andrea, who lost her son to gun violence #chanceafterchancellc joined our show to discuss upcoming movements and plans that are strictly targeting ways to stop violence in our communities. There will be a community event on Thursday, August 18th, at the Capri Theater. 
The most devastating thing I heard on the show was our guest expressing the void and hurt she felt from the lack of community support after losing her son to gun violence in Minneapolis in 2022.
17 organizations will be under one roof, with new support and new solutions/ideas to bring a decline in the crime rate in Minnesota.

What is KMOJ's Community Viewpoint?

“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is a podcast series created by KMOJ-89.9 FM Radio “The People’s Station”. These conversations explore issues and perspectives critical to the health and well-being of all members of the communities of color we serve.
Since first going “on the air” in 1976, KMOJ-89.9-FM continues its legacy as the community-oriented station located in Minneapolis, Minnesota airing a predominantly urban adult contemporary format.
“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is one way the station achieves its mission of engaging, supporting and empowering Communities of Color to elevate the way of life of the people of its community and to challenge social and economic disparities, and the persistent consequences of historic racism.
The station call letters, “KMOJ” were inspired by the Swahili word “UMOJA” which means “Unity.” http://kmojfm.com/
