Citta "Slow"
The slow food movement encourages people to take more time preparing their food and eating it together. We speak with the Mayor of Orvieto, Italy, a "slow-city." Far from being insipid and meaningless, primetime TV dialogue is becoming denser and more dialogue-packed. Also on the show, find out why television producers are lengthening scripts and encouraging actors to talk faster--in the manner of Cary Grant in Arsenic and Old Lace, a certificate for real Italian restaurants, and the transit worker leadership, under the microscope.
TWU: Toussaint Wants Understanding
Fred Siegel Senior Fellow, Progressive Policy Institute and professor of history at Cooper Union, on radicalism in Caribbean culture and what Monday’s strike might look like.
Take The "A" Train…if it's running.
Garry Pierre-Pierre, editor-publisher of the Haitian Times, says Toussaint’s radical leadership is not unique to the Caribbean and describes relations between transit workers and MTA management.
