From BronxTalk host, Gary Axelbank:

Tonight’s BronxTalk will take a look at the proposed cuts to 42,000 day care and after school slots. Honestly, it will be a little hard for me to be objective about this subject, having raised my children in a Bronx where we we made extens…ive use of these programs and found them to be indispensable. So we’ll just tell it like it is. In any case our guests are an executive of an umbrella agency who runs these programs through the city and a rep from Bronx Works. BronxTalk, tonight at 9pm.
