Here to help us pick up the pieces from this week’s Rev. Jeremiah Wright story: from a faith perspective, a media perspective and an activist’s perspective, we have The Rev. Dr. James Alexander Forbes, Jr., Former Senior Minister at The Riverside Church, NYC;

Plus, journalist Janus Adams, also based in New York. She’s a frequent lecturer and on-air guest, her column is now in its twelfth year and her commentaries are heard on NPR. She offers that media perspective as well as a historical one – she was one of four children selected to end de facto segregation in New York in the wake of Brown v. Board of Education.

And, we have James Rucker back on the show. He’s executive director of the online advocacy group, Color of change.org – joining us from Oakland, California.
