All Politics R Local

AMERICA’S #1 HIP HOP, POLITICAL TALK SHOW

All Politics R Local was created in 2010 by Edward Riley on the campus of Rutgers Newark. It is a natural outgrowth of The College Entertainment Revue Magazine that Mr. Riley published in the 1990s. That magazine featured interviews with Sean Puffy Combs, the Notorious B.I.G., Mary J. Blige, Reverend Jesse Jackson, Amiri Baraka and other artists and politicians who made noise in the 1990s.
Over twenty years later, the mission of Mr. Riley’s new show is the same: to be a platform for politics and culture. We believe that the most important issues that affect our lives are actually local issues dealt with by local politicians, community activists, and artists. Our show tries to highlight the people who try.
