Montpelier Slaves... KKK Rally Response... Teen Music Collective

On this week's Second Look, WMRA's Jordy Yager has two stories that bookend the racism on which America was founded, and which still exists today.  Montpelier has a new exhibit focusing on the hundreds of people James Madison enslaved, and just this week, Charlottesville released the city's plans to counter a Ku Klux Klan rally planned for July -- Jordy covers both stories.

Also, WMRA's Christopher Clymer Kurtz explores how teens in Harrisonburg are getting help with their musical dreams.... Jessie Knadler finds out why a Muslim teenager in Staunton is going on a Christian mission to Honduras.... and Emily Richardson-Lorente visits an Albemarle multi-age classrrom for a new take on an old idea.

Bob Leweke is WMRA's News Director and Morning Edition host.
