KJ Kearney, a North Charleston native, writer, community organizer, and creator of the James Beard Award-nominated Black Food Fridays Instagram and TikTok accounts, will host Citizen Better, a PBS Voices web series that debuts on Tuesday, January 16th.
According to the network, Citizen Better will follow Kearney "as he finds the ‘informal’ ways to be civically engaged in everyday life so that viewers can feel empowered to make a meaningful impact on the reg rather than just on election days. Like shoes, one size does not fit all, “trying on” various types of informal civic engagement, KJ will find what pairs suit him to make a footprint in our democracy."
