The Spoken View
An Interesting Note
Lars Gotrich - Glenn Jones has only taken up the banjo recently, but it's as if he's been inside the instrument for a lifetime. At least that's how it felt when he opened his set with a modal piece that might have felt more appropriate played next to a quiet creek than behind our desks at the NPR Music offices.

Today, stories of coming out – living undocumented in America. We have voices from across the country, and from different walks of life. They are American in every way, but with one exception: papers. Some are high profile like actor and playwright Carlo Alban, or Pulitzer prize winning journalist Jose Antonio Vargas. But many are promising students with dreams of becoming doctors and lawyers – all wanting to live with dignity and make a difference. For our program today, we hear their stories in their own words.
