Mother’s Justice Show: The Big O Discusses Legacy, Trauma, and 'The Big O Show'
Converge Media's Omari “The Big O” Salisbury recently joined his brother Chukundi Salisbury Sr. on the Mother's Justice Show on 1150 KKNW to discuss his new show, “The Big O Show,” the legacy of their parents, and the emotional toll of covering the Seattle protests. Chukundi was filling in as host for the show's incredible founder and his mother, Reverend Harriet Walden.
