Basketball Star Dawn Staley

Dawn Staley has won Olympic gold medals as a player and as a head coach. She played in the WNBA, and is now head coach of the South Carolina Gamecocks women’s basketball team. In April, she led her team to its second NCAA championship. We’ll talk about how she’s seen women’s basketball change and grow, and about how she got her start playing basketball with the boys in the projects of North Philly.

Later, we’ll hear from journalist Neda Toloui-Samnani, author of They Said They Wanted a Revolution: A Memoir of My Parents.

And TV critic David Bianculli will review the new HBO series Irma Vep.
