This Sunday would've been the start of the 2020-21 second line season, kicking off, as always, with the Valley of Silent Men parade.

This week on Takin' It To The Streets, Action Jackson gets on the phone with Valley of the Silent Men President Leon Anderson Jr. to talk about his father's legacy, what type of societal precautions will have to be in place before parades are able to resume, how second line groups can help guide younger generations, and much more.
