Confronting Injustice

Linda Solomon and co-host Khari Wilcox talk about the direction of youth today in their mission to heal, educate and empower. Healing begins with honesty-- kids need structure. Mindful communication from guardians, youth mentorship circles and parenting groups are some of the ideas discussed to help rebuild, restore and reclaim a generation of young people absorbed by social media, overstimulated by a torrent of information and left under-guided as they look to us for direction and recognition. The internet is an amoral compass and parents need to be strong, present and committed as they express the value of quality time if they wish to lead the youth of today to a meaningful path into the future. Confronting Injustice is tough and reminds us that love is not always easy yet always worth the effort.

The Other Page Radio

Haywood Fennell is a US Veteran and host of The Other Page Radio, contributing to the community through his experience and wisdom. This week's episode drives home some serious veteran's issues as we prepare to celebrate the holiday season. Homeless vets, feeding our veterans, and how veterans celebrate Thanksgiving, as ambassadors of American culture, overseas are some of the topics Haywood approaches over the hour. Changes in the community and its redevelopment programs are put in question as veteran housing remains in short order and high need. Veterans should be valued more in our society as their contributions are continuously overlooked by those that relish in the benefits of their service. The message Haywood shares this Thanksgiving is that we can work together to make it better, with wishes of blessings to the audience in gratefulness.

Life Matters

Thomas Glessner, president of the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA), has a conversation with host Brendan O'Connell about Life Matters.

Attorney Generals James and Bonta state these services as deceptive acts or practices and false advertising that may lead to health risks for women. Glessner describes the details of NIFLA's defense of Free Speech and claim that pregnancy centers should be able to provide expecting women with education and options when considering the two-drug protocol of mifepristone and misoprostol to end a pregnancy.
