We open the show learning about the Vermont Professionals of Color and the innovative BIPOC Business Directory that the organization has created. Next, we meet children’s book author and illustrator Jason Chin, recent winner of the Caldecott Medal. After that, Linda Radtke joins us to share the story of the many women-owned businesses in Waterbury, including right here on Stowe Street. And we finish the morning with the week’s first bout of open phones.
