Black Brocktonians:

A Community in Transition

by Willie Wilson, Jr.

Brockton High School’s Willie Wilson, Jr. is not just a history teacher, nor is he just a member of the Board of Trustees of the Brockton Historical Society.  Willie Wilson is also an independent historian who has extensively researched Brockton and the growth of its originally small black community through business, religious, and similar community growth into one of Brockton's largest communities.  1NM interviewed the Brocktonian about his recent historical slide presentation held at the Brockton Public Library.

A Day in the Life of KO

And finally this episode we present a segment from “BCA on the Rox” which has been on hiatus due to Rox Radio man Dave Raymond joining the Houston Astros.  Now production is back in tune and we’ve returned to our monthly installments of that program.  For example, we offer the short segment we dubbed “A Day in the Life of KO” where Peter Czymbor spends some time with the Rox marsupial to see what KO does in a normal day.
