Catching Up With State Attorney Monique Worrell, Rep. Angie Nixon D. 13 & ONYX Men of Honor 2023

Entering the new month of September, we began our morning with a conversation on change. Our first guest, State Attorney Monique Worrell, who was duly elected to the 9th Judicial Circuit and served the community, but dismissed by Florida’s governor. Holding the appeal of her entire staff while in office, she worked towards changing the culture regarding prosecution. She continues to fight for her seat through reelection. To get in contact with Attorney Worrell: https://www.moniquehworrell.com/ In the second hour, we spoke with Florida State Representative Angie Nixon D-13 about the murder of 3 people at a Jacksonville Dollar General last week. She pointed out how the Governor’s constant rhetoric has “fanned the flames” for the devaluation of black lives through out the state. Nixon, who is very vocal about the very “toxic and traumatic environment for legislators” reminded citizens that it is still their right to vote and be educated on matters affecting our community. To contact Representative Nixon: https://angienixon.com/ In the last segment, we spoke with guests Rich Black and Dee Parker, acknowledging ONYX Magazine, as the premier publication that celebrates black achievement throughout Florida. We recognized Elroy Smith, our Program Director for Star 94.5, and 24 other men who are to be honored at their annual ONYX Men of Honor Awards. ONYX Magazine is very intentional in highlighting black excellence throughout their publication. For more information about the honorees go to: https://onyxmenofhonor.com/honorees/
