Top of Form Subject: Review of key themes and concepts from interviews with Inspector Mo Perry and Sergeant Chris Borgstead on performance enhancement imagery and its application in policing and personal health. Executive Summary: This briefing document summarizes key themes from interviews with Inspector Mo Perry and retired Sergeant Chris Borgstead of the Delta Police Department (DPD). The discussion centers around "Bend Don't Break," a series focusing on optimum performance. A significant portion of the conversation is dedicated to the power of performance enhancement imagery, also known as visualization or mental rehearsal. Mo Perry, a seasoned police trainer and advocate for wellness, details the historical context, theoretical underpinnings, and diverse applications of this technique. Chris Borgstead shares a deeply personal and compelling account of how performance imagery, specifically a personalized script developed by Mo, played a crucial role in his successful navigation of a life-threatening pancreatic surgery (Whipple procedure) and subsequent recovery. The interviews highlight the critical link between mental and physical well-being for high-level performance in demanding professions like policing and in overcoming significant health challenges. Key Themes and Ideas: 1. The Importance of Mental and Psychological Aspects in High-Level Performance: · Both sources emphasize that physical skill and training are only part of the equation for achieving peak performance. · Mo Perry highlights historical evidence from Eastern Bloc countries' dominance in international sports, attributing it partly to their significant emphasis on the mental and psychological aspects of training. · Key Fact: "when it comes to high level performance about 85% minimum. Some will say as high as 90% is the mental psychological aspect of um of what's going on inside your mind in the privacy of your own mind." (Mo Perry) · This mental component involves internal dialogue, self-talk, and managing stress and anxiety. 2. Performance Enhancement Imagery: Definition and Applications: · Performance imagery is defined as "creating or recreating an experience in the mind." (Mo Perry) · It targets and leverages the "power of the subconscious mind because it's the subconscious mind that driv drives high level performance." (Mo Perry) · While commonly used informally (e.g., rehearsing a speech), structured and intentional imagery is shown to be more effective, supported by research and science. · Mo Perry has applied performance imagery in various domains within policing and beyond: · Firearms training (for new recruits, inservice members, and overcoming fear) · Sport (baseball pitching) · Police recruit training (final tests, scenario-based exams) · Sergeants promotional panels (interviews) · Reintegration for members after extended leave or use of force incidents · Police Officer Physical Aptitude Test preparation · De-escalation training and effective listening · Pre-surgery and post-surgery applications (most impactful personally for Mo and highlighted through Chris's story) 3. The Mind-Body Connection: · A central tenet discussed is the powerful and often underestimated connection between the mind and body. · Mo Perry explains how the mind controls various physiological processes, including heart rate, hormone release, healing, and blood flow. · Key Quote: "your body can your mind sorry can actually control blood flow." (Mo Perry) · This connection is leveraged in imagery, particularly in the context of Chris's surgery, to influence physical outcomes. 4. Chris Borgstead's Journey and the Impact of Imagery on His Whipple Surgery: · Chris faced a significant health challenge: recurrent pancreatitis due to a structural abnormality in his pancreas, leading to a high risk of pancreatic cancer. · He was diagnosed with an IPMN (Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm), an unknown origin tumor, and deemed a candidate for a Whipple procedure. · The Whipple is a complex and invasive surgery involving the removal of significant portions of the pancreas, stomach, and small intestine. It carries a low two-year survival rate for those with cancer, and even for preventive cases like Chris's, involves a challenging recovery. · Chris describes feeling like a "ticking time bomb" and experiencing fear when confronted with the reality of the surgery and being referred to an oncologist. · Mo Perry developed a personalized 30-minute imagery script for Chris with several key goals: · Lowering cognitive state and anxiety: Reducing worry and negative self-talk leading up to the surgery. · Improving sleep: Counteracting the negative effects of anxiety on sleep, which is crucial for physical recovery and immune function. · Preparing for the hospital experience: Mentally rehearsing the process, setting expectations for a successful outcome, and empowering Chris to communicate with his surgical team about positive language and encouragement. · Leveraging the mind-body connection for physical benefits:Redirecting blood flow: The script included intentional suggestions for Chris's mind to redirect blood flow away from the surgical site, aiming to improve visibility for the surgeon and potentially reduce bleeding. · Facilitating healing: The script reinforced the body's natural ability to heal and encouraged a positive expectation of recovery. · Results and Anecdotal Evidence:Chris reports that the imagery script was "instrumental" and he "listened to it religiously," often falling asleep to it, which helped with sleep. · He felt mentally prepared and calm going into the surgery. · Remarkable Outcome: Chris's surgeon described the Whipple procedure as "one of if not the easiest surgery he's ever done." (Chris Borgstead, recounting the surgeon's words) · The surgeon anecdotally confirmed a lack of significant bleeding at the surgical site, aligning with the intention of the imagery script. · Chris's recovery has been notably successful, allowing him to regain physical strength and maintain a high quality of life. He is over two years post-surgery, exceeding typical two-year survival rates discussed. · Chris shared the imagery script with another individual undergoing a similar surgery, who also reported a positive experience with reduced bleeding, further suggesting a potential impact of the technique. · Chris's physical recovery and return to an active lifestyle, including working out with a coach and potentially joining the Franklin County Sheriff's Department as a reserve deputy, serve as tangible evidence of his successful journey. · Chris was a finalist for "ultimate guy" in Men's Health magazine, highlighting his physical and mental resilience. 5. The Role of Support and Openness: · Chris emphasizes the importance of support networks, specifically highlighting his wife Gina's medical background and comfort level in the hospital environment as crucial. · He also underscores the value of being "open to receiving things" and sharing his story to help others. · Both Mo and Chris advocate for having an "open mind and a willingness to learn and maybe even step outside your comfort zone" to benefit from techniques like performance imagery. 6. Future of Performance Imagery: · Mo Perry believes the potential applications of performance imagery are vast and only limited by one's imagination. · He encourages others to learn more about it, recommending Brian Willis's Winning Mind Training. · The technique is seen as a powerful tool for "performance excellence" and giving oneself an advantage in any domain. Most Important Ideas/Facts: · The significant impact of the mental and psychological aspects (85-90%) on high-level performance. · Performance enhancement imagery is a structured technique targeting the subconscious mind to improve performance and well-being. · The profound mind-body connection and its potential to influence physical outcomes, as demonstrated by Chris's surgical experience and the anecdotal evidence of reduced bleeding. · Chris Borgstead's successful navigation of a life-threatening Whipple surgery, attributed in part to the intentional use of personalized performance imagery. · The potential of performance imagery to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and facilitate healing. · The accessibility and underutilization of this powerful tool, despite its proven benefits in various fields. Quotes to Consider: · "when it comes to high level performance about 85% minimum. Some will say as high as 90% is the mental psychological aspect of um of what's going on inside your mind in the privacy of your own mind." - Mo Perry · "performance imagery it it you know to to give a little bit of a history on on it if you go back uh to the 60s and 70s when the uh Eastern block countries really dominated uh uh athletic international sport... they placed a significant emphasis on the mental and psychological aspect of training." - Mo Perry · "you can give yourself the advantage through the use of performance enhancement imagery." - Mo Perry · "He said you the surgery I had that he conducted on me was one of if not the easiest surgery he's ever done." - Chris Borgstead (recalling his surgeon's statement) · "there really wasn't a lot of bleeding like that. You see, and that's kind of what made the surgery so easy." - Chris Borgstead (recalling his surgeon's statement about bleeding) · "if you don't put yourself out there you're not going to get anything in return you got to be open to receiving things" - Chris Borgstead · "having an open mind and a willingness to learn and maybe even step outside your comfort zone is really critical." - Mo Perry Conclusion: The interviews with Mo Perry and Chris Borgstead provide compelling evidence for the power of performance enhancement imagery. Beyond its traditional applications in sports and professional training, Chris's personal story demonstrates its significant potential in addressing severe health challenges and influencing physical outcomes through the mind-body connection. The discussion highlights the importance of prioritizing mental and psychological well-being as integral components of overall performance and resilience. The interview serves as a powerful testament to the benefits of structured imagery and encourages wider exploration and utilization of this technique.
The recent winter proved deadly for honey bee colonies. The Washington State University's Honey Bees and Pollinators Program reports mass die-offs for commercial beekeepers. Honey bees, butterflies, and even small vertebrates like bats and birds are important to agriculture and are indicators of a healthy ecosystem. Their populations fluctuate and are affected by pesticide use, habitat loss, and climate change. Tribes and Native groups like the Euchee Butterfly Farm are among those devoting resources to pollinator restoration work. We'll talk with Native pollinator protectors about efforts to help turn the threat to pollinators around. GUESTS Nathan Moses-Gonzales (Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation), entomologist and CEO of M3 Agriculture Technologies Jane Breckinridge (Muscogee and Euchee), director of the Euchee Butterfly Farm and the Tribal Alliance for Pollinators Melanie Kirby (Tortugas Pueblo), professional beekeeper, founder of Zia Queen Bees Farm and Field Institute, extension educator and pollinator specialist at IAIA, and a founder of Poeh Povi Flower Path Network Pam Kingfisher (Cherokee Nation), beekeeper and water protector

A news article reports that Mexican inflation saw a slight increase in the first half of February 2025. The annual headline inflation rose to 3.74%, driven primarily by service costs. Counteracting this were lower prices for fruits and vegetables, with some items seeing significant reductions. However, egg prices increased substantially because of higher demand from the United States due to its bird flu outbreak. Despite the small rise, the core inflation rate suggests that Mexico's central bank may continue cutting interest rates.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scoop News Group is thrilled to announce the winners of the FedScoop 50 awards for 2024! Now in their 13th year, the FedScoop 50 awards honor the most impactful leaders in the federal government who strive each day to leverage technology to transform government. Scoop News Group once again experienced record voting for the FedScoop 50 in 2024, receiving more than 1 million votes across five categories. As the Biden administration comes to a close, and the federal government prepares for a period of transition, it's an apt time to reflect on the transformation ushered in over the past year at the hands of selfless government officials and industry partners dedicated to bringing progress to our nation and the American people. The Energy Department could be a key force in counteracting the “profit motive” driving America's leading artificial intelligence companies, the agency's second-in-command said in an interview. DOE Deputy Secretary David Turk told FedScoop that top AI firms aren't motivated to pursue all the use cases most likely to benefit the public, leaving the U.S. government — which maintains a powerful network of national labs now developing artificial intelligence infrastructure of their own — to play an especially critical role. Turk's comments come as the Energy Department pushes forward with a series of AI initiatives. One key program is the Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence for Science, Security, and Technology, or FASST effort, which is meant to advance the use of powerful datasets maintained by the agency in order to develop science-forward AI models.

Support the show!! - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisManagerial Christianity - https://www.seekingthehiddenthing.com/p/managerial-christianityKruptos on Twitter - https://x.com/_kruptosSummaryThe conversation explores the concept of managerial Christianity and how thinking and ideas adapt themselves to power. The guest, Kruptos, discusses his decision to remain anonymous on Twitter and the benefits of anonymity in speaking freely. He also delves into the idea that anonymity allows for a focus on the strength of ideas rather than credentials. The conversation then shifts to the topic of regime evangelicals and how some individuals in positions of power adapt their thinking to align with the prevailing power structures. Kruptos critiques the idea of managerial Christianity, which emphasizes efficiency and programs over the organic growth of a church community. He argues that the medium of the message is crucial and that the technological system of the church can be dehumanizing. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the progressive vision of church renewal and the pursuit of a utopian church. The conversation explores the dangers of relying on technical systems and the need for a different approach in the church. It discusses the inherent ambivalence of technology and the trade-offs that come with its use. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing the spiritual and moral aspects of church life and not offloading them onto technical systems. It suggests that an alternative vision for the church involves building real relationships centered around the presence of God and embracing the inefficiencies that come with discipleship. The conversation concludes by highlighting the need to seek wisdom rather than just truth.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Anonymity on Twitter10:49 Regime Evangelicals and Adapting Thinking to Power39:48 The Progressive Vision of Church Renewal and Utopia39:53 The Dangers of Seizing the Administrative State41:42 The Ambivalence of Technology44:24 Offloading Moral and Spiritual Responsibility56:54 The Materialist Solution of the Technological Church01:02:06 Counteracting the Technological World with the Presence of God01:09:43 The Need for a Holistic Approach to DiscipleshipSupport the Show.Sign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/
Mary chats with apologist and author Chris Lawson of the Spiritual Research Network to discuss occult practices and beliefs that cross into a last days form of revivalism. When we think of "revival", the average Christian is imagining tent meetings, gospel messages, repentance, altar calls, and changed lives. A good and positive thing. That is no longer the only view of revivals, and due to the influence of the NAR and Bethel's School of the Supernatural, more and more calls for revival include a completely different definition, including many occult practices and manifestations. Testing the spirits in this area is more and more critical because experiential Christianity has overtaken many churches, the result of not enduring sound doctrine. In the 2nd half of the program, we delve into the rise of necromancy, or talking to the dead, in the churches, another offshoot of an occultic type of Christianity.

Stretched. Tired. Frazzled. Worn out. Beaten, Bruised. Broken. Sound familiar?This life can weigh us down with countless pains, losses and burdens. This is not a new thing. The human experience has always carried heaviness. When Jesus went to the masses in His day, He did not pretend that their lives were easy. Even His own followers would nod their heads when He mentioned the weariness of life to them. Yet, in the midst of all that might stretch us thin and wear us down, there is a beautiful invitation from Jesus. This message unpacks the simple call from the son of God to everyone who wonders if they can make it another day. Jesus is no distant King. He steps up to us in the midst of our heavy struggles and invites us with the relieving summons, “Come to Me."

In the latest installment of the Echo Podcast, Pastor Dan Sinkhorn and Adrienne Tarullo from Shiloh Church of Jasper, Indiana, take listeners on a profound journey into the essence of Christian faith in contemporary times. This insightful episode explores the allure and danger of counterfeit Christianity, the spiritual confusion prevalent in society, and encouragingly suggests a revival of authentic faith. Drawing fascinating parallels between the evolution of monetary anti-counterfeit technology and the church, the conversation ultimately encourages Christians to vigilant scrutiny of their practices against the gold standard of the Bible to ensure genuine faith. It also highlights the empowerment and growth that embracing personal vulnerability can bring in one's spiritual journey. The episode further illuminates a critical takeaway - the concept of the church as a gathering that transcends physical locations. It promotes a view of community that extends beyond the walls of a traditional church into more unconventional spaces. The conversation intrigues with its emphasis on humility, acceptance, and true fellowship, nudging listeners to see church as a place where they truly belong. Listen to 'Diving into Authentic Christianity: Counteracting Counterfeit Faith on Echo Podcast--22 to unravel a fresh perspective on the essence of Christianity. This thought-provoking episode will leave you contemplating your faith journey and inspire you to seek and establish a deeply personal relationship with God.
I've heard it said that 96% of businesses will not see their tenth birthday. A study conducted by the Exit Planning Institute reveals 30% of those businesses that survive will make it through their 2nd generation. Of what little remains, only 12% of the very limited 2nd generation businesses will make it through the 3rd generation. Business is hard. Regardless of product, regardless of industry, regardless of market, leadership, and sustainability; business is hard. A modern refrain among owners and leaders is that “nobody wants to work anymore”. Older generations look down the pathway of a younger lineage and sense a mood of apathy and lack of resolve. We then begin to conjecture as to why “nobody wants to work anymore” and begin unwrapping and applying the band-aids of bygone solutions that worked in the past hoping desperately for the tried-and-true to spur renewed action into the future. And then they don't. In a culture of significant fluctuation and innovation, it is the older generation (this author being one) that will need to confess modern blind spots and inspire adjustments in our leadership to begin mobilizing a younger into their own accountability and leadership. There are four blind spots in particular that paralyze a business in the posture of a hail-mary-like hope; fingers crossed that the next silver bullet is just around the corner. The “Purpose” Blind Spot Culturally, a business will pay enthusiastic lip service to the needed purpose directions of any business (written vision story, mission statement, and unique core values). We host workshops to identify purpose and statistically take the beautifully captured binders that we have created and sit them on the shelves for years while lamenting that “we have no aim”. A common blind spot for most business falls under a common myth, “If we can nail the right brand then everything will be alright.” We confuse brand (the perception of what exists) as purpose (the reason for which a thing exists). For a business to have clarity, arguably the number one retainage tool for both employees and customers, it must first radically commit to writing out three elements of purpose. First, a clarifying vision story is a detailed snapshot of the future of the business in at least seven categories (term of the vision, family & freedom, financial, product, team, customer, and culture). Second, a power-packed, less than 10-word, memorizable mission statement tells the rest of us why (not how) you are headed towards the vision you articulated. Third, a unique set of 3 to 5 core values (not respect, integrity, excellence…those are common values) that serve as our lone filters for cordless decision-making. The “People” Blind Spot Global sports are obsessed with superstars. If you research the organizations that are at the top tiers of any sport you will not just find the one or two superstars that garner network highlights. Instead, you will consistently find tens or hundreds of others who help to set the stage for the superstars to perform. Take away the laundry person within the sports team and even Lebron James looks silly walking out on the court in smelly, unkept clothes. The second blind spot says, “If we can just hire the right person, then everything will be alright.” Pinning your hopes on one talent has historically led to an arrogance-fueled downfall. Counteracting the people's blind spot requires a system that trains every single person in the organization rather than one talent coming from the outside. No one person can ever carry an organization; when it does it typically marks the beginning of the end. History is not in favor. The “Process” Blind Spot With the millennial sunrise of the internet, an entire new world of snake-oil sales people were hatched. Every industry in the world is now graced with the opportunity to find new marketing specialist in their field where for just a few thousand a month you will be ushered into a hidden world of magic leads and effortless sales. Equally as full are the graves of those marketing ideas that never formed. The third blind spot that stimies opportunities for new business is the exasperated myth declaring, “If we can just find the silver bullet for marketing, then everything will be alright.” Marketing is not magic or aspiration. Marketing is a process. Marketing only works when the process of finding new audiences and new customers is written, followed, tracked, reviewed, adjusted, and repeated…over and over and over again. Marketing is more about repetition than hope. The “Profit” Blind Spot Finally, we've been conditioned to believe that “sales solves everything.” Without sales, there is no fuel, but without marketing, administration, and operations there is no spine to hold the weight of sales. The fourth myth naively insists, “If we can just make more sales then everything will be alright.” Sales doesn't equal profit; healthy systems equal profit. You want to find and retain talent? You want to grow profit without having to skyrocket revenue? Stop subscribing to the ultimate blind spot thinking that your product is not your product. Your PROCESS is your product. Scott Beebe is the founder of Business On Purpose (mybusinessonpurpose.com) and speaker for the AEC industry and author of the book Let Your Business Burn: Stop Putting Out Fires, Discover Purpose, and Build a Business That Matters. Business On Purpose works with business owners to articulate purpose, people, process, and profit to liberate owners from chaos and make time for what matters most.
Faced with a difficult situation, we often ask the question “should I stay or should I go?” It could be about work, a relationship, or something more personal. We all face this question at various times in our life, and it can be overwhelming to make a choice when we're scared of the unknown.This week, we're revisiting a discussion with Corrina Gordon-Barnes, about how to tackle the decision-making process. Instead of relying on traditional methods like pros and cons lists or seeking advice from others, Corrina suggests a different approach, which involves noticing the difference between facts and thoughts, and recognising when we have the power to leave rather than simply tough it out.When we keep ourselves trapped in the limbo of indecision, when we're neither fully committed nor able to make a decisive choice, this can leave us frustrated and angry. Those frustrations can boil over into our home and work lives, or make an uncomfortable situation even worse.But by taking a moment to reflect on our current situation, we can start the process of questioning and gaining clarity, therefore revealing the choices we do have.Listen to this episode toLearn how to make difficult decisions when facing a dilemma of staying or leaving a situation, whether it's work, relationships, or friendshipsUnderstand the importance of questioning your thoughts and beliefs that may be causing stress and hindering decision-makingDiscover a fresh perspective on decision-making and a simple technique to gain clarity and make informed choicesEpisode highlights[00:04:13] The importance of belonging[00:06:42] Making a difficult decision[00:13:31] Separating fact from thought[00:16:26] Counteracting the "That's just the way it is" story[00:21:57] Questioning your stories[00:28:58] Acceptance[00:33:05] Shoulds[00:35:36] You have a choice[00:44:33] What are the consequences of not doing what we "ought"?[00:49:03] Corrina's top 3 tipsAbout the guestDr Corrina Gordon-Barnes, CPCC, coaches new managers in time management and giving effective feedback.

ered that this was her true passion (as she had suspected since having her own children) and quickly gained a reputation for professionalism, compassion and expertise among colleagues and patients. She then returned to Frontier Nursing University to complete a Master's degree in Nursing with an emphasis in midwifery. In 2020, she graduated and began as a certified nurse-midwife at a small community hospital in central Pennsylvania where she has been since that time. Her focus as a CNM is to provide evidence-based education to all birthing families, give true autonomy and informed consent throughout their time with her and to share love, understanding, empathy and true shared-decision making. When not immersed in the birthing world, she enjoys spending time refinishing furniture, gardening, raising and breeding different types of chickens, hiking and vacationing with her family.

The concept of Dene witches is an integral part of Dene culture and their traditional beliefs. Dene witches are often referred to as "Nádleehi" or "Chindi," and they are considered malevolent supernatural beings capable of causing harm, illness, and misfortune to individuals and communities. The Dene term "chindi" translates to "ghost" or "spirit," and it refers to the lingering negative energy of a deceased person that can potentially be harnessed for harmful purposes.Dene witches are believed to possess a deep understanding of dark magic and the ability to manipulate spiritual forces. They are thought to be skilled in the use of harmful spells, curses, and rituals, often with the intent to cause sickness or death to others. It's important to note that Dene witchcraft is not a form of witchcraft as portrayed in Western pop culture; rather, it's a complex and culturally specific belief system.The fear of witchcraft and witches is pervasive in Dene society, and it's deeply connected to the concept of balance and harmony in the Dene worldview. In Dene culture, there is a strong emphasis on maintaining a delicate equilibrium between the physical, spiritual, and emotional aspects of life. Any disruption to this balance can lead to negative consequences, and Dene witches are seen as potential disruptors of this harmony.Counteracting the power of Dene witches involves the use of protective measures and ceremonies. Traditional Dene medicine people, often referred to as "Hataałii," play a vital role in diagnosing and treating illnesses caused by witchcraft. These medicine people use their knowledge of healing rituals, ceremonies, and herbs to restore balance and counteract the effects of malevolent witchcraft.It's important to approach the topic of Dene witches with respect and cultural sensitivity, as these beliefs are deeply ingrained in the Dene way of life. While some aspects of Dene spirituality have become more public, many ceremonial practices and details related to witchcraft are considered sacred and not to be shared outside of the Dene community.Overall, the belief in Dene witches is a reflection of the complex and intricate spiritual beliefs of the Dene people, and it highlights the significance of maintaining harmony within the natural and supernatural realms.

Welcome to another episode of the Dr. Lo Radio Show! In this episode, Annie Hopper describes how she was able to rehabilitate her brain, which ultimately led to her full recovery, after years of dealing with “unexplained” illnesses. Her desire to help others who were suffering, ultimately resulted in her creation of the DNRS Program. The Dynamic Neural Retraining System, or DNRS, has helped thousands of people “retrain the brain” to regulate a maladapted stress response. This has created a space for healing and recovery for patients who once suffered from “mysterious” chronic symptoms and syndromes. In this episode, Annie shares her personal story on how trauma manifested in her life and how she was able to “reverse” its impact later in life. Annie was once debilitated by her illnesses and sensitivities. She started to wonder if some of the symptoms or challenges she was experiencing were caused by some sort of protective mechanism, deep within her limbic system. Could an accumulation of chemical, physical, and emotional trauma create a disorganization of neural circuits in the limbic system, keeping her body in a sort of “flight” state that constantly kept her body in a cycle of chronic illness? And if so, what could be done? The brain is like a computer, or a road map, and it can be rewired with the right attention and work. Rewiring the brain can help lessen or even eliminate automatic stress responses. Annie describes what she calls “The Five Pillars of Recovery” and how this program is utilized with people suffering from stress response-related ailments.

Even though Covid-19, Monkeypox and HIV/AIDS are three very different kinds of viral infections, they all impact some people more than others.When fighting a pandemic, we like to think that we are all in this together, but the folks who face racism, homophobia/transphobia, poverty and homelessness are more at risk than anyone else.Today professor Dr. Steven Thrasher joins us to look at why it's critical to address systemic inequality, racism and bigotry when fighting off any pandemic.In his new book “The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality and Disease Collide,” Dr. Steven examines why certain populations are more at risk from viruses like HIV, Monkeypox and COVID-19.Plus--➤ How do we talk about marginalized people and disease without stigmatizing folks?➤ How the Don't Say Gay laws are killing us all. ➤ Counteracting the cynical viewpoint that both political parties are the same when trying to bring about change.FEATURED BOOK: Dr. Steven W.
