Join Kosta and his guest: Johnnie Wheeler, First Vice Chair of Cookeville NAACP.
In this episode: Over the past 50 years you’ve seen our county from every angle. From your professional work at UCHRA, to your political service in the County Commission, to the countless boards, committees and commissions you’ve seen it all. When you look at your work so far, what’s the through-line that ties it all together? Cookeville and Putnam County are changing everyday. Right now it feels like we’re a caterpillar in a cocoon waiting to transform into a beautiful butterfly. What do you hope the next metamorphosis of Cookeville and the Upper Cumberland looks like? On September 25th to 27th Cookeville will host the Tennessee NAACP State Conference. Why is hosting the 79th NAACP State Convention in Cookeville significant right now for the Upper Cumberland and for the state?
