Welcome to Tulsa Talks presented by Tulsa Regional Chamber. I'm your host Tim Landes.My guest on this episode had a very busy and productive 2020, and for that we recognized her as one of our Tulsans of the Year in our January issue. Dr. Tiffany Crutcher helped launch three weeks of protests in response to police brutality, she helped put together a Juneteenth celebration that brought lots of joy to the community the day before Donald Trump visited Tulsa and she helped out her friend Greg Robinson in his mayoral campaign that saw him finish second. She continued her work with the Terence Crutcher Foundation, which she founded and serves as executive director. She helped restore the home of a 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre survivor and in December, Hollywood star Kerry Washington donated $20,000 to the nonprofit, which Crutcher then distributed to 10 local charities. We covered a lot of topics in a Zoom conversation recorded the second week of January. She recaps her year and what's driving her in 2021 as we approach the 100th commemoration of the Tulsa Race Massacre. She's one of many who feel reparations are owed to the survivors and descendants. While many wonder what that would cost, Crutcher says it's about more than dollar signs. It's been over four years since her brother Terence was killed by a Tulsa Police officer. She discusses how she continues to fight for criminal justice reform and shares her thoughts on what she wants to see from the City of Tulsa in terms of changes in policing. Crutcher also reflects on the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol insurrection and how it reminded her of the unspeakable horror of what occurred in Tulsa on May 31 and June 1, 1921.She also talks about what it means to be featured as one of the many rising Black community leaders in a new mural created by Black Moon Tulsa. It can be seen at the Metro by T-Mobile at 4704 N. Peoria across the street from McClain High School. It's a powerful conversation that captures Crutcher's passion for social justice and the need for changes to be made in Tulsa to further unify our community. Following that conversation I'll share a new song from Tulsa rocker's Golden Ones. More on them later. Let's get this going. This is Tulsa Talks with Dr. Tiffany Crutcher. ******* To close out this episode, Golden Ones is sharing their song, "No Plan" off their debut album "Nowhere Fast."Writer Julie Watson had this to say about the album in our January issue:"This debut album, released Nov. 27, takes its cues from the best of ’70s rock and roll — plenty of energy, lots of glam and no shortage of infectious melodies. Sarah Frick is perfectly at ease fronting the quartet with her powerful vocals, backed by Sean Fisher on guitar, husband Jesse Frick on bass and Jay Sullivan on drums." Here is Golden Ones with "No Plan."

Ecco le notizie più importanti della settimana selezionate da "Ascolta la Notizia". Facciamo il punto sulla pandemia di Covid-19. Questa settimana il numeri di contagi di coronavirus registrati nel mondo hanno superato quota 26 milioni. Sono i dati del conteggio della Johns Hopkins University di Washington sui casi individuati in tutto il mondo, aggiornato a venerdì 4 settembre 2020. Il numero di decessi ha superato quota 869mila. Gli Stati Uniti si confermano il Paese più colpito dalla pandemia con oltre 6 milioni di casi. Il Brasile è sempre il secondo Paese più colpito con più di 4 milioni di contagi. In India i casi hanno quasi raggiunto quota 4 milioni e la Russia ha superato il milione di casi. In Italia i casi di coronavirus registrati nell'ultima settimana sono 8.963: +14% rispetto alla settimana precedente. Venerdì la portavoce dell’Oms, Margaret Harris, in un briefing alla stampa sul coronavirus a Ginevra, ha dichiarato che «non ci aspettiamo di vedere una vaccinazione diffusa fino alla metà del prossimo anno». «Questa fase 3 richiede più tempo perché dobbiamo vedere quanto il vaccino sia veramente protettivo e quanto sia sicuro», ha spiegato riferendosi agli studi clinici in corso. Passiamo alla politica italiana. Il fronte del sì al referendum sul taglio dei parlamentari del 20-21 settembre si avvia verso la vittoria. Sulla base del sondaggio di Ipsos presentato venerdì da Nando Pagnoncelli sul "Corriere della Sera", si stima un’affluenza del 52% e che «l’esito non è in discussione». «Il 71% voterà a favore del taglio dei parlamentari e il 29% contro. Gli indecisi, pari al 17% di coloro che dichiarano di volersi recare alle urne, non sembrano poter rovesciare il risultato», fa sapere il sondaggista. Per quanto riguarda le elezioni regionali, che si terranno negli stessi giorni in cui si terrà il referendum, si prevede che il centrodestra otterrà almeno 4 regioni. Lo ha rilevato la Supermedia AGI/YouTrend, media ponderata dei sondaggi nazionali sulle intenzioni di voto, realizzati dal 19 agosto al 2 settembre dagli istituti Demos, Euromedia, SWG e Tecnè. Chiudiamo con la tecnologia. Per contrastare le fake news sul coronavirus e fare in modo che i prossimi appuntamenti elettorali negli Stati Uniti e altri paesi si svolgano senza intoppi, Facebook ha introdotto un limite agli inoltri sulla chat Messenger. Gli utenti del social network potranno inoltrare un messaggio solo a un massimo di cinque persone o gruppi alla volta. «Riteniamo che il controllo della diffusione della disinformazione sia fondamentale, perché la pandemia di Covid-19 continua e ci stiamo avvicinando a elezioni importanti negli Stati Uniti, in Nuova Zelanda e in altri Paesi. Limitare gli inoltri è un modo efficace per rallentare la diffusione di disinformazione virale e di contenuti dannosi che potenzialmente possono causare danni nel mondo reale», in un post Jay Sullivan, a capo della gestione prodotto di Messenger per la privacy e la sicurezza.

After Jay Sullivan wife Jo Ellyn passed away there was no hesitation that a foundation should be started in her honor to support those that want to go into the nursing profession as that is what she did for 41 years. Since 2017 they have been supporting those wanting to go into the nursing with scholarships. They have temporarily shifted gears and are fundraising to provide meals to front line workers and last Friday provided meals for the entire ICU team at Mass General.
