Rebuilding Trust inside a Scandal-Plagued Company

Guest: Fred White, PhD, Professor of Russian Literature, Film and Culture, Utah Valley University US intelligence agencies and many members of Congress who’ve seen the classified reports are convinced Russia did meddle in the presidential election. A special prosecutor and several Congressional committees are trying to figure out if the Trump campaign colluded with Russia in that meddling. But Attorney General Jeff Sessions called insinuation of his collusion “a detestable lie” in Congressional testimony on Tuesday. Professor White recently returned from Russia and offers some insight.

Guest: Derek Black, JD, Professor of Law, University of South Carolina Segregating schools by race has been illegal in the US for more than 60 years. But today, many of the gains made after that landmark Supreme Court ruling in Brown vs. Board of Education have disintegrated. Schools across America are steadily re-segregating along racial lines. The separation isn’t as explicit as it was in the Jim Crow South, when communities designated schools for white children and other schools for black children. But if the effect is the same and more than a third of US schools are now attended almost entirely by students of one race, is that acceptable?

Guest: Sam Payne, Host of the Apple Seed. The comic, thought-provoking genius of Kevin Kling.

Guests: Erik Brodt, MD, Family Medicine Physician, Assistant Professor at Oregon Health and Science University, President and Founder, We Are Healers; Lakita Maulson, Medical Student, University of Wisconsin More minority groups are graduating from medical schools than ever before, except one. The number of Native American graduates from medical school is actually in decline. But one doctor in Oregon is determined to change that. His foundation, We Are Healers, is dedicated to inspiring Native American youth to help increase the number of native doctors who can come back and serve tribal communities.
