Jen Finelli is a physician and injured adventurer. Her real-life adventures have ranged from the funny and silly (like getting herself locked in a German nunnery by accident) to the beautiful (like scuba diving with sharks) to the severe and tragic (like breaking her spirit as she held the dying and watched sexual assault victims suffer without justice). So she often writes fantastical science fiction with a real-life military, medical, or combat edge. When she is not doing that, she plays with trauma and pain and hope. Marie Whittaker, the Exec Dir of Superstars, reached out with what an amazing guest Jen would be. And so, please meet Jen Finelli, who just published her five-book series with WordFire Press.

What do you do when your issue has become the new third rail in American politics? Immigration is front and center in the US election in 2024 and has been a part of the national conversation for a long time. Most everyone regardless of where you stand would agree that how our country approaches immigration needs a change but after that, there are wildly different view points on how to do so. Pushing for immigration reform that balances contrasting viewpoints while ensuring the rights and dignity of immigrants is the job of organizer, strategist, and advocate, Vanessa Cardenas. As Executive Director of America's Voice, Vanessa works with her team to build the public support and the political will needed to enact policy changes that secure freedom and opportunity for immigrants in America. Vanessa and I talk about how her own unique immigrant story ignited her interest in advocacy work, her personal and professional journey that took her from organizer, to political strategist, policy advocate, consultant and now non profit executive. She also shares her thoughts on everything from the current moment we're in politically on immigration, why she has had to apply a lot of compromise she doesn't like to move immigrant reform foward.

In this episode, Executive Director of the Western Riverside Council of Governments Kurt Wilson talks with students from the UC Riverside School of Public Policy about community development, disproportionate minority contact deficiencies within the criminal legal system, and regional governance and collaboration.    About Kurt Wilson: Dr. Kurt Wilson serves as the Executive Director of the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG), bringing over 25 years of local government leadership experience. A native of the Inland Empire, Dr. Wilson has held senior management roles in five cities across the West Coast and served in both state and federal capacities, including two gubernatorial appointments from former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. His career highlights include guiding the City of Stockton through a financial recovery from bankruptcy to becoming one of the most fiscally healthy large cities in the U.S. Dr. Wilson is also an educator, teaching courses in public policy and government operations, and has held leadership roles such as Vice President of the California affiliate of the International City and County Management Association.  Learn more about Kurt Wilson via https://www.linkedin.com/in/kurt-wilson/ Podcast Highlights: "There was a time in our history... that once someone is convicted of doing something, we sort of throw them away... and then when they come out, having been in that environment, we're somehow surprised that things didn't get better." -       Kurt Wilson on the topic of the evolution of reintegration processes into society, post-incarceration.  "A lot of equity efforts fail because they're presented in a way where there's a clear winner and subsequently a clear loser. The person who feels as if they're being attacked, or that they're likely to lose is inherently going to push back. We see that in issues of race, we see that in issues of policing, all of our social issues, it's a very similar theme where we're not starting from the same place. By understanding that from the get-go, you're able to come up with some concepts to make a little bit more sense." -       Kurt Wilson on the topic of equity efforts and how framing can affect public perception of key issues.   Guest: Kurt Wilson (Executive Director, Western Riverside Council of Governments) Interviewers: Rachel Strausman (UCR Public Policy Major, Dean's Chief Ambassador) Esa Hasan (UCR Public Policy Major, Dean's Ambassador) Music by: C Codainehttps://freemusicarchive.org/music/Xylo-Ziko/Minimal_1625https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Xylo-Ziko/PhaseCommercial Links:https://spp.ucr.edu/ba-mpphttps://spp.ucr.edu/mpp  This is a production of the UCR School of Public Policy: https://spp.ucr.edu/ Subscribe to this podcast so you don't miss an episode.

Since Roe was overturned, the stories of those who've had abortion have become a central part of our national conversation. In part, that's due to the work of many activists in the reproductive rights and justice movement, like Renee Bracey Sherman, reproductive justice activist, abortion storyteller, and writer. She is the founder and executive director of We Testify, an organization dedicated to the leadership and representation of people who have abortions and share their stories at the intersection of race, class, and gender identity.Her path as a bi-racial Black woman to do the work that unabashedly centered abortion rights as a human right and communities that disproportionately seek abortion care (people of color) was not easy. Renee and I do a deep dive on her personal and professional journey as an activist and advocate. She also shares her thoughts on everything from the current moment we're in politically on abortion rights, why she has always chosen to be uncompromising in her fight for abortion access, the payoff from committing to finding your own path, some great tidbits from her recently released first book Liberating Abortion and more!

Today's podcast: CIRB orders rail service to resume across Canada at 12:01a.m. tomorrow. Teamsters will appeal decision to federal court. Guest: Scott Moe. Premier, Saskatchewan Another one? Air Canada pilots voted by 98% in favour of strike action which could happen in a matter of weeks. A.C. news releases agree appear a mere formality, but is it? Guest: Raymond Hall. Former Air Canada captain, past president of the Air Canada Pilots Association and lawyer We revisited with our guests of 24 hours ago the issue of the rail strike/lockout and their dire predictions for Canadians when they joined us yesterday. Are they optimistic, is the delivery of $-billions in goods already too far behind to be resolved quickly? What must be done to end these rotating hits to our national economy and the well-being of Canadians (including holding on to jobs)? Guest: Dan Kelly. President/CEO, Canadian Federation of Independent Business Guest: Ron Foxcroft, Owner FLUKE Transport trucking firm in Hamilton, ON, chaiman of FOX 40 Industries (importer and exporter)  A British Columbia class-action lawsuit against the B.C. and federal governments over the safer supply drug program is waiting for certification. The suit alleges government-funded 8mg hydromorphone pills (dillies) and other so-called safe supply drugs provided to addicts led to more addictions and death when these safer supply drugs were sold by addicts to mainly teens. One of the lead plaintiffs is Gregory Sword, father of 14-year-old Kamilah who died after ingesting "dillies" purchased from a dealer of safer drugs. Mr. Sword has been a guest on our program. Also: The Ford government in Ontario is ordering the closure of safe (drug) consumption sites within 200 meters of schools across the province. Kindly explain what the 'H' these sites were doing within 200 meters of schools in the first instance. Guest: Adam Zivo. Exec Dir. Centre for Responsible Drug Policy A point raised repeatedly during yesterday's program as we spoke of the Canada-wide rail shutdown was that food supplies would face increasing difficulty reaching grocery store shelves and that food prices would increase. Got us to thinking about the new Statscan information about the numbers of Canadian families facing food insecurity, The early 2024 numbers are increasingly disturbing. 45% of Canadians reported rising prices were greatly affecting their ability to meet day-to-day expenses (including food). - In 2023, 8.7 million people, including 2.1 million children, lived in households reporting food insecurity in Canada, an increase of 1.8 million people from the previous year.  Consider the combined populations of Calgary and Edmonton are just over 3 million.  Guest: Professor Valerie Tarasuk. University of Toronto. Founding investigator of PROOF, U of T effort to identify policy interventions to reduce household food insecurity in Canada The goings-on in Ottawa and within government bureaucracy just over the past week.
