08/31/2020 Mo Shriner, representing the US Census stops in with Freddie Bell and CHantel SinGs

Due to the impacts of COVID 19, the US Census was originally extended until October 31st.

Show Notes

Recently, a new deadline has been implemented naming September 30th the last day to complete the
census. There are now 42 days left to complete the census.
 This means that census operations are losing a month to adequately count people, which could
have a disproportionately negative effect on communities of color who are historically
undercounted in the census. Mo Shriner shares even more details.

What is KMOJCast?

Select programming from KMOJ's airwaves and community voices. 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/
