This week's episode of Eight One Sixty highlights Greenline Grows KC: A Benefit for The Greenline Initiative, a livestream benefit concert coming up on Friday, Aug. 28. On the show we’ll sit down with one of the founders of The Greenline Initiative, Ajia Morris, and musician Khrystal. 

The virtual concert event will feature music from Radkey, The Greeting Committee, Khrystal., Danny Cox + Bob Walkenhorst, Cuee, Enrique Chi of Making Movies + Las Hermanas Altoro, Stephonne, Krystle Warren, They Call Me Sauce and The Phantastics. We'll play music from several of these acts on the show.

All money raised from the virtual event will benefit The Greenline Initiative, which is a Black family-owned organization in Kansas City that uses crowdsourced funding to help historically marginalized and low-income populations in our city buy and renovate the houses they rent.
