I am super excited to interview Jehmu Greene, CEO and Founder of We Defend Truth. She shares about how her first job didn't really pay her and now as an activist still does not get paid a lot. She talks about her incredible journey trying to promote progressive values even going to work at Fox News. She talks about her great work at WeDefendTruth in working to combat disinformation and trying to bring more and more people back to common sense. She talks about being careful to not flood on information before asking the questions, "Is this true?" "How do I know?" and "Is it worth sharing?" She also shares how she learned from getting cancer, and gives so many important self care lessons from that. She shares about how important it is to find the next new young leader.

One year ago today George Floyd's death sparked outrage that will likely change policing in the U.S. forever. The unarmed black man was killed by former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin while under arrest. A viral video showed Chauvin pressing his knee on Floyd's neck for several minutes until he died. After the video was shown, violent protests erupted across the U.S. over police brutality and racism. This past March, Derek Chauvin was convicted of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in the death of George Floyd. The other three former officers who aided Chauvin are set to go to trial in August. Calls for police reform have also been at the forefront following Floyd's death. Both Republicans and Democrats have promised to pass legislation but have fallen short on getting a bill passed. Civil rights attorney and FOX News contributor Leo Terrell and founder and CEO of TruthNotLies and FOX News contributor Jehmu Greene look back at the past year, the impact of George Floyd's death and where America is today on police reform. U.S intelligence agencies are set to deliver a public report to Congress in the next month, detailing what they have discovered about mysterious flying objects, referred to as UFOs or UAPs. Fox News Nation Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin joins to discuss how the study of UFOs gained prominence and shifted from a joke to a legitimate nation security concern at the Pentagon. She explains how these "unidentified aerial phenomena" have baffled pilots and radar alike and breaks down what possible explanations there could be for these mysterious occurrences. Plus, commentary by Dan Gainor, vice president for TechWatch, business and culture at the Media Research Center.

For this episode of #OnTheSpot, we sat down the collaboration consultant, Baily Hancock to discuss millennial women finding their place in the workplace and in their careers. As a Collaboration Consultant, fellow Podcaster and Workshop Instructor, Baily helps people collaborate with their community to achieve their goals; whether that's making a career change or growing their business through Baily Hancock HQ. (https://bailyhancock.com/) When Baily first began collaboration consulting, she launched her first course called "The Career Experiment," where she had only one person signed up for it. This failure propelled her to work harder the second time around, and her hard work paid off: she promoted her second online course, "The 1-Year Career" much more, and thus began her road to entrepreneurship. To learn more and to follow Baily, head over to bailyhancock.com (bailyhancock.com) and subscribe to her podcast The Baily Hancock (https://bailyhancock.com/thebailyhancockshow/) show available on iTunes and Google Play Music! Our key takeaways from our convo with Baily: Stay "approachable, adaptable, and flexible." "Women by nature are naturally collaborative. We have always since the dawn of time, had to work with each other to survive." -- Baily Hancock ICYMI: Make sure to check out Baily's On The Dot #WomanToWatch feature on our website OnTheDotWoman.com (https://onthedotwoman.com/woman/baily-hancock) and on our daily newsletter and podcast Four Minutes With On The Dot (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/four-minutes-with-on-the-dot/id1309880515?mt=2)!
