On Deck - Wednesday, April 21, 2021

WCBU's On Deck has everything you need to know to start your day for Wednesday, April 21, 2021. Our top story is about the murder conviction in the death of George Floyd, and how the president of Peoria's chapter of the NAACP says he hopes this represents a turning point for equal justice. You'll also hear from Carl Cannon, the founder of ELITE - a Peoria Park District youth outreach program. He tells the story that inspired him to not only work with young people, but also to write his new autobiography, "Full Cannon".

Daniel Musisi is WCBU's Assistant Audio Director. He's also the host of our daily newsmagazine All Things Peoria.
