Barbra Horrell

As Black History Month winds down, we take a look back at Columbia's Douglass High School in the 1950s when today's guest, Barbra Horrell (alongside Dr. Eryca Neville, current DHS principal), attended what was then a segregated all-Black school: "I kind of say that we're a tale of two cities."

We're kicking off Black History Month with a visit to Columbia's Broadway Diner and a conversation with owner David Johnson and longtime Columbia resident Barbra Horrell. Ms. Horrell - despite living here her entire life (all 84 years) - has only recently stepped foot inside the diner because of its racial past in a once segregated Columbia. Her story on today's show.
