On today's Radiozine, KPFK's Sojourner Truth with their one-hour, in-studio special with Artis Shreve Lane, one of the country's foremost sculptors and the first Black woman to have her work displayed in the National Portrait Gallery. We speak to Lane about what it felt like to see her bust of abolitionist Sojourner Truth featured at the U.S. Capitol, her early days as a struggling art student, and how her unique family background shaped her work.
