Authors Melissa Harris-Perry and Christine Jahnke

On the next Another View, a conversation with political science professor, political pundit and author Melissa Harris-Perry. Her latest book is called Sister Citizen - Shame, Stereotypes and Black Women in America. In the book, Harris-Perry argues that persistent harmful stereotypes interfere with black women's claims to the full rights of citizenship. She says these stereotypes profoundly shape black women's politics, contribute to policies that treat them unfairly and make it difficult for black women to assert their rights in the political arena. Then, we'll talk with author and speech coach Christine Jahnke, author of The Well Spoken Woman. Jahnke will give us the speech and presentation skills we need to make a powerful impact. Plus, Lisa Godley introduces us to Hampton Roads latest star, 17 year old Maury High School senior LaQuanda Reid, who plays Dorothy in the Hurrah Players' latest production, the Wizard of Oz. It's an hour of female empowerment on Another View, Friday, October 21 at noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM.
