People to People: March 31, 2007

This week's People to People is full of exciting info.

We begin with a trip to Ghana where host, Allison Payne, was on hand for that country's 50th year of independence celebration earlier this month. Join Allison as she explores Ghana's rich culture and history as one of the key slave ports to the west.

Also, meet a local couple from Matteson whose church is doing amazing things in Ghana-- building schools, churches, and wells for clean water. Find out how you can help.

Then in honor of women's history month, enjoy an encore presentation of WGN's interview with history making speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi.

And another history maker, only closer to home, say hello to Cheryle Jackson, the first woman president of the Chicago Urban League. Hear her plans for this longtime civil rights organization.
