From KQED.

Welcome back to Forum. I'm Ariana Prail.

Our next guest is no stranger to KQED listeners.

Mina Kim is an award-winning reporter and anchor.

And after hosting forum on Fridays for many years, she took over forums daily 10 a.m. hour last July. But did you know that she's from Newfoundland, taught first grade in New Jersey, trained doctors and surgeons to be leaders, and was an avid runner before chasing after three kids? With Mina at the helm, forum's second hour is now statewide and

covers the most important state and national stories through a lens of race, justice, and

equity. Hello, Mina, and welcome back to the nine o'clock hour. Hi, Ariana. Nice to be here.

And I want to open it up to our audience. If you have questions for Mina on life, career, or forum,

you can share

them with us now. Give us a call at 866-733-6786. That's 866-733-6786. You can also get in touch

on Twitter and Facebook. We're at KQED forum or email your questions to forum at kQED.org.
