The Local Show: January 24, 2012

This week:  Sam Zeff reports on how Kansas picks judges and its direct relation to education funding,  capturing an oral history of lynchings in America and the Störling Dance Theater's production "Underground."

This week on The Local Show, Sam Zeff explores why picking judges in Kansas has more to do with the classroom than the courtroom. We share a recent Religion and Ethics Newsweekly segment which explores a local woman’s efforts to capture the oral history of those who witnessed lynchings in a dark chapter of American history. And we look at the upcoming Störling Dance Theater production of Underground.
