This week on Valley Edition we take a look at a Fresno City Council race on the November ballot. VE Host Joe Moore speaks with both Cary Catalano and Esmeralda Soria. Also on the program, Moore speaks with Fresno State Professor Janine Nkosi about Faith In Community's "blight to light" campaign with a focus on getting boarded up homes filled cleaned up and filled with occupants.
Ending the program Moore and KVPR reporter and producer Ezra David Romero talk about the station's involvement with ArtHop in Downtown Fresno for the month of October. This month CMAC, Community Media Access Collaborative, and Valley Public Radio partner for an exhibit that brings the station's blog Voices of the Drought to life.
