First hour: Candidates for State Supreme Court, group 2
Second hour: Writer Maiah Johnson on diversity in the wine industry
We're joined by our second group of candidates for New York State Supreme Court. There are seven candidates vying for four seats. Our guests discuss their platforms, priorities, and work on the bench:
- Julie Cianca
- Judge Vince Dinolfo
- William Gargan
Then in our second hour, a local wine blogger recently decided to stop writing about wine. She explained why during a pair of recent dinners to raise money for African American-owned businesses. Maiah Johnson writes from the perspective of a wine lover, a travel enthusiast, and a Black woman who says she was often viewed with suspicion in upscale settings. She shares her perspective and experiences. Our guest:
- Maiah Johnson, wine writer
- Aqua Porter, board member for Yoga 4 A Good Hood
