Afrospear represented in Iowa

One of our own Citizen Journalists, and Afrospear member, Faye Anderson will be Live from Iowa.

As she has noted on her blog, Anderson@Large the Iowa caucuses are less than five weeks away. So, there will be no getting away from the Democratic presidential candidates, who will be debating from sunup to sundown on Saturday.

First up, the Heartland Presidential Forum in Des Moines, which will feature John Edwards, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Chris Dodd and Dennis Kucinich and 5,000 BFF (DUMP JAN 04 08). The forum will be moderated by TV One’s Cathy Hughes (disclosure: TV One links to my blog).

The debate will air live on C-SPAN at 2:30 pm ET. You can also view a live webcast.

It will be all the way live when the candidates square off at the sixth Iowa Brown & Black Presidential Forum, “the nation’s only presidential forum in which all candidates have the opportunity to answer essential concerns of African-Americans and Latinos.” More HERE

AAPP says: More Good news, Michele Norris of NPR's All things Considered will be in the house as well. Between Faye Anderson, and NPR's Michele Norris, the award-winning journalist with more than two decades of experience, who host NPR's newsmagazine All Things Considered in the house. It should be a day of exciting political conversation about issues important to Black Voters.
