Channel: Peabody Awards
Date: 2021-06-24

John Seigenthaler presents The Promise: Season 2 with a #PeabodyAward for reporting on the structural inequities in public education. Taking aim at nice, well-meaning white parents in an increasingly gentrified neighborhood, the podcast chronicles the decades-long fight against desegregation in Nashville as well as the nearly all Black Warner Elementary’s uphill battle, led by its charismatic new principal, to turn itself around. Congratulations to The Promise, host Meribah Knight, and Nashville Public Radio.
