Just about every month, we round up our favorite local journalists and bloggers. We get their perspectives on the recent news headlines that caught their attention.
We were joined by:
• WBEZ education reporter Linda Lutton
• Maudlyne Ihejirika, urban affairs reporter at the Chicago Sun-Times
But this month, we also heard about “Escape From Nigeria: A Memoir of Faith, Love and War”. In her recent book, Maudlyne Ihejirika shares the untold story of the courage her mother, Angelina Ihejirika. Maudlyne’s mother withstood the unimaginable to protect her six children and survive a grizzly war.
