Dee Perry welcomes award-winning Ohio poet Nikki Giovanni to share poems from her new book - Chasing Utopia - prior to her appearances at Case Western Reserve University and The Cuyahoga County Public Library. Plus we share a performance by the stars of The Beck Center's 33 Variations featuring the music of Ludwig van Beethoven. And ideastream's Anne Glausser takes us to a vacant lot in Cleveland where sheep are employed as urban “eco-mowers.” Nikki Giovanni, poet
