In the second episode of our Know Your Rights series, Leah and Melissa sit down with NYU Law's Daniel Harawa to break down what you do—and don't—have to say when law enforcement stops you.

“HEY! YOU CAN'T FISH HERE!”Okay… but can you?Episode 337 of Jigs & Bigs dives into one of those situations almost every angler will eventually encounter: you're fishing water you believe you have every legal right to be on, and a property or dock owner tells you otherwise.This week's Just the Tip is all about knowing before you go.Public water vs. private property. Private docks. Legal access. Navigable water. Fishing from a boat vs. wading vs. standing on the bank. Sportsman's rights and interference laws. And what happens when somebody hangs a NO FISHING sign somewhere that might not actually give them the authority to tell you not to fish?The complicated answer?It depends.We look at examples from around the country to demonstrate just how dramatically access and angler-protection laws can differ—and why something Bobby said on a podcast or some jabroni confidently posted on Facebook should never replace doing your own homework.And if a confrontation does happen?Knowing your rights doesn't mean you have to exercise them at maximum volume.We talk de-escalation, respecting property owners, knowing when to walk away, and even when it might make sense to call the game warden yourself.Just remember:Calling the warden isn't calling in reinforcements. You're calling in a referee—and the referee can throw a flag on YOU.Then on Broke on the Boat, we're talking CHEAP INSURANCE—the inexpensive purchases and simple maintenance that can keep a tiny problem from becoming an expensive one.Because spending twelve bucks to protect a $300 rod isn't expensive.Replacing the $300 rod because you wouldn't spend twelve bucks?Now you're Broke on the Boat.Plus Joe and Bobby get into the usual fishing stories, bullshit, listener interaction and everything else that makes J&B… J&B.

Before you accept a plea bargain, understand the in-depth breakdown of the plea process and your constitutional rights.What Really Happens When You Plead Guilty? Essential Rights, Plea Bargains, and Court Procedures RevealedWhen someone pleads guilty to a crime, it's much more than just signing a form or standing before a judge. Steve Palmer, a seasoned criminal defense attorney, breaks down everything you need to know about plea bargains, what your rights really are, and why understanding the process can make all the difference in court.Whether you're a client facing charges, an attorney, or simply interested in the justice system, this episode details what happens step-by-step—what a plea colloquy entails, the rights you give up, and the legal obligations of your attorney.Bullet Takeaways:The meaning of knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily pleading guilty—and why it mattersWhat a plea bargain is, how it works, and the importance of written agreementsEssential constitutional rights you are waiving (jury trial, confrontation, compulsory process, right to silence, appeal, and more)The risks of assuming what a judge will do at sentencing—and why there are no guaranteesWhy thorough communication with your attorney before going to court is crucial5 Frequently Asked Questions about pleading guiltyWhat does it mean to plead guilty "knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily"? - It means the defendant fully understands what pleading guilty involves, is not being coerced, and is making the choice freely and with all necessary information.What is a plea colloquy and why is it important? - A plea colloquy is a dialogue in court to ensure the defendant understands their rights, the plea terms, and what they are waiving. It helps protect the plea from being challenged later.Which constitutional rights are given up when pleading guilty - Rights waived include: trial by jury, presumption of innocence, right to remain silent, confrontation of witnesses, compulsory process, right to appeal, and the right to an attorney at trial.Are recommendations from the prosecutor or defense about sentencing binding on the judge? - In Ohio, most recommendations are not binding. The judge has discretion and can change their mind, even after expressing intent to follow the recommendation.Why is preparation with your attorney before a plea so important - Without thorough pre-plea discussions, clients may not truly understand what they are agreeing to. Proper preparation ensures informed consent and reduces the risk of misunderstandings or regret.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Ep. 468: The Know Your Rights Map: Obstetrical Violence, Birth Trauma, and Patient Rights in the Hospital Birth Room with Cristen Pascucci [Re-Air of Ep. 203] In this Birth Lounge Podcast episode, host HeHe interviews Kristen Pascucci, founder of Birth Monopoly, about birth trauma and obstetric violence in hospital birth. They discuss trauma as a self-defined response that overwhelms the system, common trauma/PTSD symptoms (intrusive memories, nightmares, avoidance, physical reactions, triggers including the hospital or even the baby), and the overlap with prior sexual trauma. Pascucci explains obstetric violence as appropriation of the birthing person's body and subordination through coercion, manipulation, pressure, disrespect, and power dynamics, ranging from jokes about birth plans to forced procedures; vaginal exams without true informed consent are highlighted as a common example. They also cover reporting options (hospital complaints, state licensing boards, lawsuits) and why accountability is often limited, including low disciplinary rates and barriers to malpractice cases, and share resources at birthmonopoly.com including an obstetric violence map. 00:00 Accountability and Advocacy 02:06 Informed Consent Basics 04:09 Meet Cristen Pascucci 05:34 What Birth Trauma Means 09:23 Trauma Symptoms and Triggers 16:13 Defining Obstetric Violence 20:13 The Pyramid of Harm 21:39 Common Example Vaginal Exams 33:02 Reporting and Medical Boards 45:29 Resources and Closing   Guest Bio: A former communications strategist at a top public affairs firm in Baltimore, Maryland, Cristen Pascucci is the founder of Birth Monopoly and Birth Monopoly's Doula Power group, co-creator of the Exposing the Silence Project, and, from 2012 to 2016, vice president of national advocacy organization Improving Birth.

Signing the general consent form when you walk into the hospital does not mean you have agreed to everything that follows. Not the Pitocin. Not the vaginal exam. Not the electronic fetal monitor. Not the cesarean. Not the hospital policy. Every single one of those still requires your informed consent.I had the privlege of sitting down with Hermine Hayes-Klein, an attorney who has spent 25 years specializing in women's rights in pregnancy and childbirth. She moved to the Netherlands while pregnant with her first baby, watched a completely different birth system up close for five years, came home, and became a lawyer who takes the birth cases nobody else will touch. The ones where the baby is okay but the mama is not. She represents the women nobody is fighting for. And she wins.What Hermine shares about your actual rights in the birth room is the kind of information that changes how you walk into every single prenatal appointment and ultimately into your birth.  Here are some highlights from the episode:What informed consent actually means — and why signing a general consent when you walk into the hospital does not cover everything that followsThe real cases behind Hermine's work — and why she started taking them when nobody else wouldWhat hospital policies can and cannot do — and why they do not get to override your legal and constitutional rightsThe specific ACOG documents Hermine recommends having printed and highlighted in your hospital bag before labor startsThe five sets of risks every pregnant mama deserves to weigh when making birth decisions — and why providers are only ever talking about one of themInduction, breech birth, electronic fetal monitoring, AMA — what you actually need to know about each of theseThe exact language you can use to hold your ground in the birth room without being rudeConnect with Hermine:

1. Religious Liberty Commission A commission formed in 2025 to evaluate threats to religious freedom. It conducted hearings and gathered testimony from over 100 witnesses. Its final report was delivered to President Trump, outlining proposed reforms. 2. Healthcare Sector Implications The report recommends expanded protections for healthcare workers (doctors, nurses, pharmacists, etc.) who object to certain medical procedures on religious or moral grounds. Proposed actions include: Strengthening enforcement of federal “conscience laws” Supporting specific legislation (e.g., Conscience Protection Act) Increasing investigation and legal defense of religious rights The debate: Supporters: Say workers should not have to choose between their beliefs and careers. Critics: Argue this could limit patient access to services. 3. Military Implications Focuses on service members who refused COVID-19 vaccines for religious reasons. Many were denied exemptions and suffered consequences (e.g., dismissal, lost benefits). Recommends: Improving the process for religious accommodations Offering stronger protections for service members’ beliefs 4. COVID-19 Vaccine Context The pandemic is a key example of government overreach. Religious exemption requests were often denied Individuals were forced to choose between compliance and employment However, the commission does not call for banning vaccine mandates, but rather for more meaningful accommodation processes. 5. Policy and Legal Proposals “Know Your Rights” campaigns Hotlines and reporting systems for violations Honors/awards for defending religious liberty These proposals could be implemented through: Executive action Congressional legislation Legal challenges Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

In this re-aired episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with attorney, human rights advocate, and birth justice champion Hermine Hayes-Klein for a conversation every pregnant person needs to hear.   If you've ever wondered whether you can say no during labor, change your mind after signing a consent form, refuse an induction or cesarean, or push back against a hospital policy that doesn't align with your wishes, this episode is for you.   Hermine breaks down what informed consent actually means, what your legal rights are during pregnancy and birth, and why so many families leave their birth experience feeling powerless, unheard, or violated. Together, she and HeHe unpack the difference between hospital policy and patient rights, discuss the reality of obstetric violence in the United States, and explore how coercion and fear-based counseling can impact birth outcomes and long-term mental health.   They also dive into why so many people are losing trust in the maternity care system, how providers can unintentionally override consent, and what happens when patients feel they have no real choice. Hermine shares powerful stories from her legal work advocating for birthing families and explains why being informed before labor begins is one of the most effective ways to protect your autonomy.   You'll learn:   What informed consent actually requires in pregnancy and birth   Why signing hospital paperwork does not mean you've given blanket consent   Whether you can change your mind or withdraw consent during labor   The difference between a recommendation and a requirement   What your rights are if you're being pressured into an induction or cesarean   Why hospital policies are not the same thing as medical necessity   How obstetric violence can occur, even in well-intentioned healthcare settings   The critical role doulas play in supporting informed decision-making   Practical ways to advocate for yourself before and during labor   How preparation can help reduce fear, coercion, and birth trauma   This episode is a powerful reminder that your body is not public property, your consent matters at every stage of labor, and you deserve to understand your options before making decisions about your care.   Guest Bio:   Hermine Hayes-Klein is an attorney, human rights advocate, and founder of the Know Your Rights campaign, which helps families understand and exercise their legal rights during pregnancy and childbirth. After experiencing the Dutch maternity care system firsthand, Hermine became passionate about addressing obstetric violence, protecting informed consent, and improving access to respectful maternity care. Through litigation, education, and advocacy, she works to advance accountability and reproductive justice for birthing families around the world.

For families raising a child or caring for a family member with different abilities in Hong Kong, the law can feel like a maze — full of critical protections and planning tools that are rarely explained in plain terms. Too often, parents, guardians and carers discover their rights only when a crisis has already arrived. That is precisely the gap that The Ability Bridges was designed to help close. Launched in late 2025 as a six-month pro bono initiative, The Ability Bridges is a collaborative campaign dedicated to bringing accessible, practical legal knowledge to individuals with disabilities and their families across Hong Kong. The campaign is run in partnership with three community organisations at the heart of the special needs sector — the Love21 Foundation, The Nesbitt Centre, and Sensational Foundation — and reflects the firm's deep commitment to ensuring that access to justice is a right, not a privilege. The campaign has already made a tangible difference. In March 2026, Hugill & Ip hosted an intimate evening at its offices, gathering families, carers, and NGO workers for a focused session on estate planning for families with special needs. Led by Alfred Ip, the discussion tackled the questions that keep parents and carers awake at night — from structuring discretionary trusts to understanding guardianship. Today, the campaign has taken a broader step with a free, community-facing seminar at Café 8 in Hong Kong. Three of the firm's leading practitioners — Adam Hugill, Raphael Wong, and Polly Chu — addressed a distinct area of law that directly affects families living with disability: anti-discrimination protections, divorce and child arrangements, and long-term housing and estate planning.

Yacht crew work across borders, contracts, flag states, management structures, and onboard procedures, but many do not fully understand what those details mean until something goes wrong.In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman is joined by Lucy Goff and Jenny Harris from Ocean Legal for a practical conversation about yacht crew rights, marine law, employment contracts, NDAs, jurisdiction, reporting, evidence, and the realities of working at sea.This is not a fear-based conversation. It is a knowledge-based one.Lucy and Jenny explain why yacht crew need to understand their contracts before joining a vessel, what governing law and jurisdiction clauses can mean in real life, why union support such as Nautilus can matter, and why NDAs do not automatically silence crew after serious incidents.They also discuss one of the biggest myths in yachting: that working in “international waters” means there are no rules.For crew, captains, senior crew, yacht managers, recruiters, owners' representatives, and anyone involved in the superyacht industry, this conversation belongs in the wider discussion around safety, accountability, welfare, and professional standards.In this episode:  Yacht crew contracts and red flags   Governing law and jurisdiction   Nautilus, union support, and legal backup   NDAs and privacy limits   Onboard reporting versus criminal reporting   Evidence, timing, and documentation   Why crew should ask questions before there is a crisis   How Ocean Legal is making marine law more accessible  Guests Lucy Goff, Ocean Legal Jenny Harris, Ocean LegalHost Cherise Reedman, Superyacht LaundryLearn more about Ocean Legal: https://oceanlegal.co.uk/Prefer to read?

Who doesn't love a library? Unfortunately, library workers at Mid-Continent Libraries don't feel much love from their bosses, and they've organized a union. We'll have them and results of their vote on it on tonight's show.

Randi Leath wants your budding entrepreneurship idea to be safe; and that starts with having copyright law on your side. She knows that young business leaders might see their idea as 'too small' to warrant registration, and she wants you to avoid that pitfall. Randi shares how to properly document the generation of your entrepreneurial idea at each phase, when it's time to get an intellectual property lawyer involved, and why any business (from money-generating-hobby to start-up company with hopes of acquisition) should keep track of their creations.

Welcome to My Limited View with Sergio Novoa. How many times have you heard someone say,
“That's a violation of my First Amendment rights!” Usually right after getting banned from a Facebook group. Or muted at Thanksgiving. Or fired for tweeting something wild at 2 a.m. In this episode, we're breaking down what free speech actually means, what it doesn't mean, and whether you really support it…Or just support it when it agrees with you. Before you shout “That's unconstitutional!” again…You might want to listen.

In this episode, we're joined by Jasmine Rivera, Executive Director of the Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition, and Andrew Brananoksi, Executive Director of the Pennsylvania Immigration Resource Center, with additional insight from Lize Miller of PIRC's Removal Defense Team. Together, they break down how Pennsylvania's immigrant advocacy and legal defense organizations support individuals and families facing immigration enforcement. Our guests explain the distinct roles their organizations play—from statewide policy advocacy and community coordination to direct legal representation for people in detention or at risk of removal. The conversation explores how their work has shifted amid an escalation of immigration enforcement, who qualifies for legal defense services, and the constitutional rights immigrants—including undocumented immigrants—continue to have. Listeners will hear practical guidance on what to do (and not do) if questioned by immigration officers, what documents people should have ready, and which documents should never be shown without legal advice. We also cover critical issues around home entry and warrants, including the difference between judicial warrants and administrative immigration warrants, and why that distinction matters. The episode closes with guidance for families on preparing in advance, creating emergency plans, and taking immediate steps if a loved one is detained. This episode is essential listening for immigrants, allies, and anyone seeking clear, grounded information about rights, risks, and protections under today's immigration enforcement landscape.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From the Twin Cities to Georgia, ICE enforcement has hit working-class communities hard. In the latest episode of Solidarity Works, two labor leaders—Minnesota USW staff representative Justin Recla and USW Civil and Human Rights Director Alex Perkins—share how they've responded, what tools are available to every local, and why this fight belongs to all of us. Music in today's episode by Ketsa and Lobo Loco.

Executive Director Ann Kloeckner sheds light on a critical gap in the legal system—civil cases where people facing serious issues like eviction, debt, or family matters are not guaranteed an attorney if they can't afford one. She explains how this reality impacts real lives and underscores the urgent need for accessible legal support. The conversation also dives into the broader housing crisis, examining why affordable housing is essential for stability, equity, and strong communities. Finally, she highlights practical efforts to bridge the justice gap, including the “Lawyer in the Library” program, offered on the first and third Tuesdays, and the upcoming “Know Your Rights as a Tenant” event on April 22.  legalaidwork.org

This year's legislative session may leave working people in a state of Misery, their rights assaulted, with fewer public services and less funding for public schools, and their pockets fleeced as the legislature substitutes high sales taxes for the state income tax.   This week on the Heartland Labor we'll get the latest on what the legislature is doing from Missouri House Representatives Mark Sharp and Kemp Strickler and from Senate Minority Leader Doug Beck. Our feature is Know Your Rights with Michael Amash.

In this informative episode on Radio Medium, host Laura Lee chats with legal expert Todd Bresney, senior partner and trial attorney at Kanoski Bresney, to break down one of the biggest myths in personal injury law: whether having a preexisting condition prevents you from winning an injury claim. Many accident victims are told they don't have a case because of prior injuries or health issues, but Todd explains why that belief is often incorrect and how the legal concept of aggravation of a prior injury allows victims to still pursue compensation when negligence worsens an existing condition. Through a real-life case example involving a devastating truck accident and delayed spinal injury diagnosis, Todd reveals how insurance companies attempt to minimize claims by blaming past medical history and how experienced trial attorneys challenge those defenses with medical experts and legal strategy. This episode offers essential insights for anyone navigating personal injury claims, accident liability, medical documentation, insurance negotiations, and legal rights after an injury, reminding listeners that understanding the law can help protect their health, financial recovery, and future well-being.

What happens when philanthropy treats this moment like a true crisis and local organizers refuse to let cruelty become normal?In this episode, Glen Galaich is joined by co-host Dr. Carmen Rojas, President and CEO of the Marguerite Casey Foundation, for a conversation filmed at the first of a series of events called Common Thread, a new initiative designed to bring people together through conversation, culture, and connection. Glen and Carmen talk about how people can get involved and attend future Common Thread events this year, then turn to the urgent realities of immigrant rights and due process as communities confront detention, deportation, and government overreach.Carmen reflects on using her LinkedIn community and platform to humanize the lives affected by disappearances and deportations. She also challenges some of philanthropy's most entrenched assumptions, including the idea that institutions must hold tightly to wealth even in moments they themselves call a crisis.Then local organizer, Nikki Marín Baena, co-founder and co-director of Siembra NC, joins the conversation to talk about who pays when philanthropy plays it safe on immigrant rights. Nikki shares what organizing for immigrant rights looks like on the ground in North Carolina. From helping neighbors connect, making communities safer, supporting Know Your Rights efforts, building Fourth Amendment workplace trainings, and responding to immigration operations that reshape daily life for workers and families. Together, Nikki, Glen and Carmen uncover the fake rules forming around immigration and mass deportation in America, and call on philanthropy to embrace risk in support of the people doing this work.

Photo: A crowd congregates in Mesa, Ariz. where a roadside memorial remembering slain San Carlos Apache teen Emily Pike was taken down nearly a year after she disappeared. (Gabriel Pietrorazio / KJZZ) It was one year ago, on January 27, 2025, that San Carlos Apache teenager Emily Pike went missing from a Mesa, Ariz. group home. Her dismembered remains were discovered a month later in garbage bags more than 100 miles away. No arrests have been made, nor suspects named. Earlier this month, a memorial in Mesa marking where Emily was last seen alive got taken down. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, it's the latest rallying cry for justice in the 14-year-old girl's unsolved murder. “Who are we here for?” “Emily Pike.” “Then say her name.” “Emily Pike.” At the corner of Mesa Drive and McKellips Road, dozens of demonstrators met on a recent Saturday as cars drove by honking their horns. “Justice for who?” “Emily Pike.” “Justice for who?” “Emily Pike.” “Who do we love?” “Emily Pike.” “Who do we love?” “Emily Pike.” This is where Emily was last seen alive. Since her disappearance, a chain-link fence hugging the edge of a 28,000-square-foot vacant lot has become home to a roadside memorial for the slain Apache teen. And it just kept on growing as more shared her story. Visitors from near and far have flocked to this bustling intersection, adorned with flowers, stuffed animals, a banner of Emily's face, and lots of red ribbons – each markers of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples (MMIP) movement. That was, until someone suddenly took everything down earlier this month. No matter who did it, Jolene Shorty is still upset. “Look what you guys did. You took down her stuff. There is a respectful way. There is a traditional way to let things go. This is not the way.” For Shorty, she says this is the second tragedy to happen there. “But what I see here my people, what I see here my tribal nations, I see a clean slate, a clean slate to start over. … In a way, they almost helped us. We're going to come back and put up more stuff. We're going to honor them the way we're supposed to.” Delvina Charley (Diné) thinks taking down those mementos adds insult to injury. “This is the respect that we got … we're pushed to the side that our voices meant nothing, that she meant nothing. If this was a different privileged girl, it would have been handled differently.” Since the items were taken down, Emily's family has been in talks with the city of Mesa on planting a tree and placing a bench at Fitch Park – just a few blocks from her last known location. They're also in discussions with the Arizona Department of Transportation about putting up a highway sign honoring Emily at milepost 277 along US 60 near Globe – where her remains were found in the Tonto National Forest. “This girl lost her life thinking nobody cared.” Jared Marquez is San Carlos Apache and treasurer of the Turtle Island Women Warriors. “I've been there, being a 13-year-old kid, never talking to my parents, running around on the reservation, you know, nobody ever truly caring. And it's hard to think what this girl went through – a lot of us could have been through.” As for the investigation into Emily's murder, KJZZ asked the FBI, the Bureau of Indian Affairs' Missing and Murdered Unit, and the lead agency, Gila County Sheriff's Office, for the status but did not receive any updates. The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) and the Native American Rights Fund (NARF) are hosting a webinar titled “Know Your Rights,” followed by a Q&A on Wednesday.
