This week on “Between You and Me,” the unique Saturday morning conversation program on 91.7 KAXE, the topic is “enough.” The idea comes from an exhibit and program going on now in Itasca County called “Enough for All.” It’s a look at poverty.
Poverty, eh? Well, I get a little tired of the same-old, same-old on anti-poverty crusades. Like a lot of people on the Range, I grew up around a lot of what I guess you’d call poverty. My contribution to the show explores the origins of the word poverty, and the way poverty follows us down through the ages.
Have I ever told any of you about growing up on the junkyard? Yes, well … more of that. But not too much.
You can hear “Between You and Me” from 10 a.m. to noon on 91.7 FM in northern Minnesota and streaming live all over the world at www.kaxe.org.
