This week’s Radio Ink Blast From The Past comes from the personal archives of Paige Nienaber, as a reminder of how radio can unite communities in the darkest times.
One week after the September 11 attacks, Minneapolis/St. Paul’s KDWB held an event at the National Sports Center in Blaine, MN, where around 2,400 volunteers, including Blaine High School students who were given special permission to miss class, held up red, white, and blue cards to form a human American flag. More than 5,000 people total showed up.
