As part of our weeklong unveiling of winners of the 2024 Public Song Project, Juliette Reilly joins us to discuss "Summer Sang," her song adaptation of Edna St Vincent Millay's poem, "What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why."
Lincoln Center's chief artistic officer Shanta Thake joins us to discuss takeaways from the 2024 Public Song Project and share some of her personal favorite submissions and runners up. She also helps to preview WNYC's Public Song Project: The People's Concert at The Underground at Jaffe Drive, on Saturday at 6 PM, a free show that's part of Lincoln Center's Summer for the City series.
Sometimes on Fridays we ask you about your weekend plans, so call us with what you've got going on! Plus, hear what's in store for this weekend from members of team All Of It, our WNYC colleagues, and other listeners.
A new documentary follows the Taliban in the aftermath of the United States withdrawal from Afghanistan and how Taliban forces occupied the Hollywood Gate complex, said to be a former CIA base. Discovering new military technology there, the Taliban slowly morphs from a militia into a robust military group. Director Ibrahim Nash'at discusses this risky filmmaking process and his new film, "Hollywoodgate," in theaters today.
Marine biologist and shark specialist Jasmin Graham faced some barriers to entry as a Black woman attempting to follow her dream of studying sharks. She chronicles that story, and tells us more about sharks, in her new memoir, Sharks Don't Sink: Adventures of a Rogue Shark Scientist. The book also discusses Jasmin's role in the foundation of Minorities in Shark Sciences (MISS) a group working to provide support for other aspiring marine biologists of color.
