Dr. Helen Caldicott, author, pediatrician, and international renown expert on the dangers of nuclear power and weapons on the human health impacts of meltdown in Japan. And, we’ll speak to a teacher, and leader in the ethnic Studies program, who reports that white teachers in support of the new ban on ethnic studies, are turning in their colleagues for “Breaking the Teaching Ban” and stealing evidence so they can be prosecuted: Also we’ll feature an-depth discussion with noted human rights activist attorney co-chair of Coalicion De Derechos Humanos on the many kinds of violence Brown people face in a state reverberating with guns and unchecked racism.
