This morning tune in some of the works of legendary reggae/dub producer Winston Riley, and songs from Sister Nancy, General Echo, Ansel Collins, and others. And hear from disability rights advocate Darlene McGraw, who has been confronted by the police and public officials in Saratoga Springs for chalking her complaints about the city's slow progress in complying with the American Disabilities Act. ADAPT Capital Region held a chalk-in at local government offices to show their support for McGraw, who spoke with Mark Dunlea of WOOC.
