Description: Have you ever thought about the relationship between corporate money and equitable arts initiatives? Percussionist Sidney Hopson has dedicated his career to convincing for-profit institutions that investing in the arts for Black and brown communities can impact their bottom line in a positive way. He speaks with Garrett about this, and lots more! Garrett and Scott remind you that music is not an escape with a few very timely selections, and former manager of Classical Minnesota Public Radio gets a special shout-out. This opus is dedicated to Kansas City's KJ Brooks, and is made possible, in part, by Derek Menchan and BluKlok Records presenting, "The Incredible". Playlist: Negro National Anthem, perf.
