WGTS 91.9/Washington, DC on-air hosts Claude Jennings and Jerry Woods lead a weekly discussion about race that's open, honest and sometimes uncomfortable in an effort to foster growth and understanding between people of all races. It's a refreshing look at race from a non-political bent that's meant to bring people together. Each week, we take questions, share stories, and discuss where we're seeing progress, inspiring you to be a part of change.
