At a time when disinformation and misinformation are putting our democracy at risk, KCUR’s official channels won’t reward that behavior. Here’s our statement: loom.ly/-BEFRb4
Army Pfc. Willy F. James Jr. was finally honored in his hometown of Kansas City. James was killed in 1945 by a Nazi sniper while trying to save his injured platoon leader. But he was unjustly denied the country’s highest award for valor. loom.ly/CTTWmFQ
KCUR’s Overlooked podcast has won the award for best audio project (small market) from the national nonprofit @IRE_NICAR, one of the most prestigious honors in investigative journalism. loom.ly/BqWjhlY
Julien Eltinge, Bert Savoy, and Karyl Norman were just a few of the famous artists who toured through Kansas City during the heyday of the Shubert and Orpheum theatres. “Eltinge was internationally known. He was the RuPaul of his day,” Hinds says. kcur.org/arts-life/2023…
He was the star of that first @NBCBaseball Congress event in 1935, winning four games, striking out 60 batters, leading Bismarck to the championship, and, most importantly, drawing large crowds. (via @KMUW) kcur.org/2023-03-31/why…
The Citizens Association started in the early 1930s and once held enormous influence over city elections. Its power has waned in recent years, but a new, more diverse group is reshaping the organization. loom.ly/CmFbUVk
One of the most comprehensive stories I've read about @WhiteCastle, its history and its impact on American life today. If you Crave, definitely give this a read! 🍔🏰 Beautifully done, @_macmartin! 👏 kcur.org/arts-life/2023…
From @PHKCpod and @kcur 🍔 White Castle didn't just invent sliders. The Kansas chain created a playbook for American fast food hppr.org/hppr-news/2023…
I had a blast talking about White Castle and Kansas City's hold on hamburger history for @kcur and @PHKCpod: kcur.org/arts-life/2023…
The @WhiteCastle chain began in 1921 in Wichita, Kansas, where its ingenious small burgers kicked off a national craze and inspired imitators of all shapes and sizes. loom.ly/cCJfFjc
Great episode, really made me crave a 🍔 at 9am
Great episode, really made me crave a 🍔 at 9am
✨ New episode alert ✨ @WhiteCastle's ingenious small burgers kicked off a national craze & inspired imitators of all kinds. But over a century later, the story of how it introduced America to the hamburger has been largely overshadowed. #kshistory kcur.org/arts-life/2023…
Fed up with harassment and housing discrimination, lesbians in 1990s Kansas City dreamed of a place where they could "walk hand in hand, freely down the streets." loom.ly/e6Qmlco
Missouri residents may have heard ghoulish tales of “Doc Annie” Smith, a physician who looms large in Missouri’s mythology for performing illegal abortions in the early 1900s. Today, the truth about her work has largely disappeared. (@PHKCpod) loom.ly/DukHXCM

Covered a prayer vigil at a small church in Parkville, Mo. on Sat. Its significance among the Black community & those whose ancestors built the chapel were undeniable. Last weekend someone broke in and damaged a memorial. My latest @FlatlandKC flatlandkc.org/people-places/…
