It's not easy to describe a guest as dynamic as Rinku Sen, but we'll give it a shot. Rinku is the executive director of Narrative Initiative, co-president of the Women's March Board, and author of two incredible books. As a political strategist, she has worked with the ACLU and PolicyLink, and her work on the “Drop the I Word” campaign has revolutionized the way media outlets talk about immigrants. As you can imagine, having Rinku on Let's Hear It is a treat.     In this exceptionally fun and interesting conversation, Rinku talks about her experience in journalism school, the history behind the term “systemic racism,” and how to ask the right questions to get the most useful answers. We're aware that we say this every time, but it truly is not a conversation to miss.     In sadder news, this episode marks the end of the intrepid Maggie Brown's tenure as our producer and audio editor. Let's Hear It might not be the same without them, but we're so thrilled about this new chapter of their life as they move to Japan to teach English. Give it up for Maggie!   P.S. This does mean we're in the market for a new audio editor! If you know someone who knows someone who may be interested, don't hesitate to let us know.

On this edition of ST, we speak with our friend and former colleague, Steve Clem, who recently retired from Public Radio Tulsa, and Maggie Brown, a curator at the Tulsa Historical Society and Museum.

From such beloved downtown motion-picture palaces as the Ritz and the Orpheum; to well-remembered neighborhood theaters like the Brook, the Delman, and the Will Rogers; to various multiplexes like the Fox and the Annex -- along with, of course, the city's earliest vaudeville houses as well as its various drive-ins -- this book documents a great many (mostly long-vanished) structures that, each and all, helped to define the life and times of Tulsa over the decades. Please note that Steve and Maggie will appear at a book-launch event for this new volume on Thursday the 22nd at 6pm at the Tulsa Historical Society and Museum; details on that event

Ruth Shelley: Through the Eye of Color Patience, love of color and an observing mind are the key ingredients of Ruth Shelley’s successful kilnformed glass art. For over 25 years, she has been exploring the flow of glass when heated and the reflection and refraction of light as it hits her glass objects. Dropped vessels create an interplay of light, form and color evocative of the natural-world characteristics experienced on the West Coast of Wales.  Camping in her van in Aberystwyth on Cardigan Bay, Shelley watched an impending storm develop. Its transitioning colors inspired the artist’s Stormy Seas collection. Cardigan Bay, an endless inspiration with its craggy cliffs, wide estuaries silted up with spits and bars, and the occasional island also impacted the artist’s Into the Deep series, which reflects the changing weather patterns and light experienced there on the coastal profile of Wales. A series was born from and named after a connection to Mwnt Beach, where the artist feels most at home and inextricably connected to the earth. Even during Covid lockdown, Roath Park in her hometown of Cardiff influenced Shelley’s Winter Lockdown Walk with its chromatic foliage.  Although coming from a background of textiles, Shelley has attended many masterclasses including those at North Lands Creative Glass, UK, and Bullseye Resource Center, Portland, Oregon, which enabled the realization of her ideas in kilnformed glass. She was presented with the Glass Sellers Award at the British Glass Biennale 2015 and won the People’s Prize from the Contemporary Glass Society in 2017. The recipient of many Welsh Arts Council awards, Shelley is a member of the Contemporary Glass Society and the Makers Guild of Wales. Her work can be seen in many UK galleries including London Glassblowing, Contemporary Applied Art and Albany Gallery in Cardiff, May 6 – 29, 2021 with Maggie Brown.
