Summary: Today on The Kim Brown Show: On Saturday, I went to the DC 101 Chili Cook-Off to see one band: RDGLDGRN. I LOOOVE these guys! Could barely contain my glee as I sat down with them for a few minutes. Check out my man-on-the-street interview with one of their fans and me kickin' it with the band backstage. These guys are super dope, super talented, super DMV'ers, AND they are influenced by go-go. Look at this video to see DAVE GROHL and PHARRELL bigging up these fine young men. Also, I spoke with the writer and director of the new documentary about Angela Davis. Shola Lynch spoke with me about her latest project, Free Angela. Here's the plot outline of this compelling story: The high stakes crime, political movement, and trial that catapults the 26 year-old newly appointed philosophy professor at the University of California at Los Angeles into a seventies revolutionary political icon. Nearly forty years later, and for the first time, Angela Davis speaks frankly about the actions that branded her as a terrorist and simultaneously spurred a worldwide political movement for her freedom. Lastly, my Voice of Russia colleague, Carmen Russell-Sluchansky, calls in to recap the special election held Tuesday in South Carolina's first Congressional district. Former governor Mark Sanford turned into Political Lazarus, resurrecting his elected career. all with his jumpoff fiancee by his side. Find out how he was able to put the whammy on Steven Colbert's sister, who Carmen says ran a decent campaign.
