Blast from the Past' with Raymond St. Jacques. Program is divided into two halves: the first consisting of a group interview with five African American football players from the New England Patriots, the second of newsmagazine-style segments. Guest host Tom 'Satch' Sanders talks with Ron Boulting, Mac Herron, Reggie Rucker, Sam Cunningham, and Leon Gray about their education, the violence of the game, preparing for a career after football, and the need for young players to recognize the value of an education (given the odds against playing professionally). Additional segments include 'Community Access' (on home improvement loans, lead poisoning, and requesting a housing inspection),'Blast from the Past' (with an excerpt from a 1970 interview with actor Raymond St. Jacques on Hollywood's prescribed roles for African American actors), the 'Community Calendar' (with community and cultural events listings), and 'Commentary' by Producer Marita Rivero on the need for African Americans to vote. Produced by Marita Rivero. Directed by Conrad White.

- Abstract:
Barbara Barrow comments on Judge Garrity's altered desegregation plan. Program explores the impact of the modified desegregation plan that went into effect in Boston, Massachusetts, in May, 1976. Host Barbara Barrow visits the students and faculty of the William Monroe Trotter School in Roxbury's District 9 to explore the intent of Judge Garrity's altered desegregation plan via conversations with Lillian Wood (a learning center coordinator for the Trotter School), Dennis DeCoste (teacher at the Trotter School), and students. Topics include the enforcement of racial diversity, how the school curriculum has changed with the implementation of the plan, and how students and teachers feel about their new learning workspaces. At the time of the program, the Trotter School had an excellent reputation as a magnet school. Additional program segments include a previously aired in-studio performance from the musical 'Raisin' (with Darren Green singing 'Sidewalk Tree') and the 'Community Calendar.' Produced by Barbara Barrow. Directed by Conrad White.
