It’s the Friday News Roundup! We discuss an initiative to get 2,024 young Black men in Philly registered to vote by November and the debut of the city's first autonomous bus down at the Navy Yard. Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Pat Loeb, City Hall Bureau Chief for KYW Newsradio, and Meir Rinde, investigative reporter for Billy Penn.
Our Friday News Roundups are powered by great local journalism:
- Team of Philadelphia elected officials launch campaign to increase number of Black men voting in November
- As autonomous bus launches at Navy Yard, drivers’ union pushes back
- ‘True Biz,’ an adventure yarn with deaf teenagers, is the Free Library’s ‘One Book’ selection
