Yesterday (Thursday, 9-17-15) in Pasadena the local NPR affiliate (kpcc.org) held a capacity event at the Crawford Family Forum that also ran on Livestream at 8:00 pm.
 
The fall television season is about to launch. Last year saw the likes of ABC's “Fresh Off the Boat,” "Black-ish," and "Jane the Virgin" poke fun at racial stereotypes, while appealing to audiences across the spectrum.
 
And in the land of late-night television, South African comedian Trevor Noah will soon replace Jon Stewart as host of “The Daily Show.”
