In January 2010, Carmen Sanders, a twenty-two-year-old woman living in Ridgeland, Mississippi, was murdered inside her apartment. The investigation moved quickly, resulting in an arrest, formal charges, and a guilty plea that led to a life sentence. Carmen's story is told through the life she was living before her death a young woman balancing work, school, and plans to move forward and the circumstances that allowed violence to occur in a space that appeared ordinary and familiar.

Donald Trump just claimed in an interview that the events in Minnesota suggest that ICE needs to use a “softer touch.” He also struggled to create the impression that he's been working constructively with local officials there. While all this is just spin, it reveals an awareness that these events have put him in a politically weak position. Indeed, this comes as Trump's plans for vast migrant prison camps are hitting angry opposition in unlikely places: In a deep red, partly rural county in Virginia; among Republican officials in other states; and even in Mississippi, where a GOP Senator has come out against a planned camp there. We talked to Brian Beutler, who's been arguing on his excellent “Off Message” Substack that Dems need to take charge of debates like these. We dig into the surprisingly robust backlash against Trump on immigration, why the prison camps present a big opportunity for Democrats, and why they must abandon the idea that Trump's 2024 win showed a big cultural shift against immigrants.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

The Civil War along the Mississippi was reaching a critical moment by the Summer of 1862. The Union had advanced and planted its flag in Louisiana's state capital without firing a shot. To many observers, Confederate grip seemed to be slipping away for good. But before that was for certain, one desperate gamble remained...Today, we're telling the story of the lesser known Battle of Baton Rouge: why it happened, how it unfolded, and the accounts of those who witnessed it. On today's show, Don welcomes Prof. Aaron Sheehan-Dean of Louisiana State University back onto the show. His works include ‘Why Confederates Fought: Family and a Nation in Civil War Virginia' and most recently ‘Fighting with the Past: How Seventeenth Century History Shaped the American Civil War'.Edited by Aidan Lonergan.

While the production of my Lowdown commentaries is high-tech, I confess that I'm antiquated.I still write each piece in longhand, applying my ballpoint to paper. This has caused bewildered glances from some who see me scribbling away in local coffeeshops and bars. Recently, one fellow sidled up and whispered: “Watch out! If they see you doin' this, they'll haul you off to the Smithsonian.”But we handwriters might not be as obsolete as the key-tappers assume. A fast-spreading grassroots movement is calling for schools to reemphasize the value of writing and printing by hand, instead of being wholly-dependent on machines. Already, 24 states – as varied as Mississippi and California– now require public schools to teach cursive handwriting in third-through fifth grades.This squares with new understanding of how brains absorb information. While keyboards are faster, the slower, more tactile act of handwriting creates longer lasing comprehension of letters – and better retention of the thoughts they convey. Neuroscientists find that rote keystrokes on a computer require little mental engagement, while physically drawing out words and ideas takes coordination of multiple areas of the brain to focus memory, eyes, and fingers on creating a written product.Just writing this piece conjured up a fond remembrance of my early childhood: Sitting on the floor of our home learning to draw the ABCs, both print and cursive, on those lined practice pads. It was both an artistic exercise and the development of a foundational tool for a life of learning.This is Jim Hightower saying… Yes, computer literacy is an indispensable element of today's childhood curriculum --- but so is the richer development of human thinking through putting pen to paper. So let's teach both!PS—Here's a post we did a couple years ago about how Hightower's work goes from handwritten on paper to whooshing through the ether into your inboxes:Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

You may have heard about the significant ice storm that has swept through northeast Mississippi. Like many in our area, the Media Gratiae team has been affected, and the disruption has made it difficult for us to release a new episode this week. Still, we didn't want to leave you without encouragement. So this week we're returning to one of our most well-received series, originally published on October 13, 2022, featuring a conversation between Dr. John Snyder and Jeremy Walker on John Owen's Mortification of Sin. Our prayer is that the Lord would use these conversations to strengthen your faith and stir your hearts toward holiness, even in a week marked by disruption. We at The Whole Counsel love Puritans. We have benefited so much from their sermons, prayers, and books, it is our delight to discuss them and hopefully whet your appetite to read their words. In this new series of podcasts, Dr. John Snyder is going to walk through two books from the Puritan, John Owen, with our longtime friend Jeremy Walker. In this first episode, Jeremy and John are discussing Owen's, “On Temptation” and they discuss how to define, identify, and deal with temptation and testing. What are the differences and how should we approach them differently? Check out Jeremy's podcasts From the Heart of Spurgeon and A Word in Season here: https://www.mediagratiae.org/podcasts Temptation Resisted and repulsed by John Owen: https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/christian-living/temptation/ The Mortification of Sin by John Owen: https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/christian-living/the-mortification-of-sin/ Volume 6 of the Works of John Owen: https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/collected-workssets/the-works-of-john-owen-6/ Want to listen to The Whole Counsel on the go?

An extraordinary new exhibition has just opened in the small Alabama township of Gees Bend, and it gives us some clues as to why this community of world-famous quilters became home to one of America's greatest creative legacies.   The quilts of Gees Bend were first exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, nearly 25 years ago and today their quilts hang in many global art galleries. Since then the critics have repeatedly asked how an isolated community of Black American women could have prefigured many of the traditions of modern art without any formal training. These quilts were born of need, but they were fresh, and utterly original.     Since then not only has their legacy and reputation grown, but other African American quilters have also come to the fore. These include communities in Mississippi, as well as those who carried their southern quilt making traditions to California during World War Two.   Now the exhibition in Gees Bend tells the story of the first named quilter in the township – a woman who almost certainly arrived in America from West Africa as a child on the last known slave ship to enter US waters in 1860, over 50 years after the trade in human beings had allegedly been outlawed.   For more information about this episode and pictures of the people and places mentioned in this episode please go to https://hapticandhue.com/tales-of-textiles-series-8/   And if you would like to find out about Friends of Haptic & Hue with an extra podcast every month hosted by Jo Andrews and Bill Taylor – here's the link: https://hapticandhue.com/join/

For much of the twentieth century, Mississippi was a place where racial violence was not merely ignored but actively erased. Witnesses stayed silent. Juries looked away. It was just a different time, they say. James Craig Anderson's murder did not happen in 1955. It happened in 2011. This time, the cameras were watching. This time, the federal government stepped in. This time, the perpetrators pleaded guilty. Progress would be measured not in apologies or promises, but in prison sentences. And unlike so many before him, Anderson's killers were not celebrated, excused, or folded gently into historical amnesia. They were named. They were tried. They were sentenced. Dragged into the light, they could not escape what they had done. Join Cam and Jen on this episode of Our True Crime Podcast entitled ‘Targeted: The Killing of James Craig Anderson.'

What does it mean to follow Jesus when the state is demanding your loyalty—and the church is tempted to comply? Watch the video of this episode on YouTube here. On the 120th anniversary of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's birth (February 4th), Russell sits down with Charles Marsh—author of Strange Glory: A Life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer—to ask why Bonhoeffer still captivates Christians and what his witness demands from us now. Together, they explore how Bonhoeffer recognized the moral collapse of the German church earlier than most, and why he insisted that confessing Christ's lordship must sometimes give way to concrete, costly action in history. The conversation widens to the pastoral dilemma Bonhoeffer never escaped: when is it enough to proclaim the gospel faithfully, and when must a preacher speak directly to the crisis at hand? Marsh reflects on the tension between shaping consciences slowly and naming injustice plainly, and how Bonhoeffer struck a balance. Marsh ultimately tells the story of his own father, a Mississippi pastor who preached “Amazing Grace for Every Race” at real personal cost, and of figures like Will D. Campbell and Fannie Lou Hamer, whose Christian witness fused tenderness with moral clarity. Their lives, Marsh suggests, reveal that faithfulness may not be loud, but it is never neutral.

Throughout US history, only three Black women—Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun, and Kamala Harris—have given successfully recognized bids for the office of president of the United States. In A Black Woman for President: Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun, and Kamala Harris(UP of Mississippi) author Dianna N. Watkins-Dickerson uses womanist rhetorical criticism to analyze the presidential announcement speeches of Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm, Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun, and then-Senator Kamala Harris. In close readings of each candidate's speeches, Watkins-Dickerson defines womanist rhetorical theory and its efficacy for researching Black female voices in the field of communication in general, and the presidential announcement speeches of Black women, specifically. Beginning with Shirley Chisholm's historic 1972 campaign as the first Black woman to run a viable campaign for the US presidency, the volume analyzes how Chisholm's speech set a precedent for future generations of Black women in politics by boldly asserting her right to lead, despite the multiple barriers of race and gender. The study then moves to Carol Moseley Braun's 2004 presidential announcement, exploring how Braun's speech navigated the intersections of identity, representation, and political ambition during a time when Black women in the Senate were still a rarity. Finally, the analysis culminates with Kamala Harris's 2020 presidential bid, focusing on how her rhetoric blended elements of Black feminist resistance and national unity in an era of heightened political and racial division. The volume highlights the ways in which Chisholm, Braun, and Harris drew upon their lived experiences and cultural legacies to construct powerful, transformative narratives and argues that their speeches not only expanded the boundaries of political discourse but also reimagined the possibilities for leadership in America. Ultimately, this study provides a rich, interdisciplinary framework for understanding how Black women have reshaped the political landscape through the power of their words. You can find Dianna N.

How do we protect and advance health equity in a rapidly changing political and legal landscape? In this episode of The Health Disparities Podcast, host Christin Zollicoffer sits down with Dr. Giridhar Mallya — family physician, policy leader, and Senior Policy Officer at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation — to explore the future of health and racial equity work.

He breaks down what organizations can do to stay mission‑aligned, legally sound, and resilient. In this episode, Dr. Mallya discusses: Why health equity remains a core priority for major funders How philanthropy is supporting legal defense strategies Practical ways organizations can navigate legal uncertainty Why equity should be integrated — not hidden — in health initiatives Lessons from states like Florida, Mississippi, and Alabama How personal experience and clinical practice shape Dr. Mallya's approach A powerful conversation for funders, practitioners, and community leaders working to advance equity in challenging times.

On December 21, 2025, activist and trailblazer Betty Reid Soskin passed away in Richmond, California. She was 104. Over the years we've chronicled Betty's remarkable story and want to share it today in honor of Betty and Black History Month.In 2011, at age 89, Betty became America's oldest national park service ranger, a position she held until she retired at 100. Her bold and forthright tours and talks at the Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front Museum were legendary. As a Black woman who worked in the segregated war effort, she spoke from her personal experience revealing a fuller, richer understanding of the World War II years experienced by women and people of color on the home front.Betty's Creole/Cajun family was from New Orleans and her great grandmother had been born into slavery in 1846. Displaced by the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, Betty moved with her family to Oakland, where she grew up in the late 20s and 30s. During WWII she worked as a file clerk for Boilermakers Union A-36, a Jim Crow all Black union auxiliary, where she witnessed firsthand the discrimination faced by Black workers in the wartime industry.Betty raised four children in the highly segregated Diablo Valley area where the family was subject to death threats. She and her first husband, Mel Reid, owned one of the first Black record shops west of the Mississippi located in Berkeley. She also worked as a Field Representative for California State Assembly women Dion Aroner and Lonnie Hancock. In 2016, at age 94, Betty survived a violent home invasion and returned to work at the Rosie the Riveter Museum just weeks later.A singer, songwriter, poet and musician, Betty chronicled her life and work in a memoir, "Sign My Name to Freedom," which inspired both a stage play and a documentary film. Betty received numerous awards and honors throughout her life, including a presidential coin from Barack Obama in 2015 after she lit the national Christmas tree at the White House.Special thanks to: The San Francisco Public Library and Shawna Sherman of the African American Center of the San Francisco Main Library; This is Love Podcast and creators Phoebe Judge and Lauren Spohrer; and A Lifetime of Being Betty, a Little Village Foundation recording release produced by Mike Kappus.

In this episode, we sit down with two school counselors from Mississippi whose work took an idea from our Teachers Pay Teachers to a national stage. After purchasing our Coping Skills Café, they adapted it to meet the needs of their students. What happened next was something none of us could have predicted. Their work went nationally viral after being picked up by the Associated Press and featured across multiple news outlets.What we love most about this story isn't just the attention, it's the collaboration behind it. These counselors took an idea, made it even better, and implemented it in a way that authentically served their school community. Even more meaningful was the grace and professionalism they showed by crediting the original resource while sharing their work publicly.This conversation is all about creativity, collaboration, and what's possible when school counselors share ideas instead of guarding them. It's a reminder that our best work often happens when we build on one another's strengths — and that there's room for all of us to succeed.If you've ever adapted a resource, wondered what happens after you click “purchase,” or needed encouragement that collaboration truly matters, this episode is for you.Coping Skills Cafe

As the GOP hardens its position on Roe v. Wade we are beginning to see the future of what Alito's draconian decision holds. In Missouri, like in Texas, if you get an abortion in another state, you could still be arrested. In Mississippi, they want to charge mothers with murder for terminating a pregnancy. If it all sounds insane, it is. Walt Masterson joins Mea Culpa to discuss what he's seeing on the ground infiltrating MAGA Rallies.

David Greene joins us to talk about his new podcast, David Greene Is Obsessed, where opera singers map public restrooms, pizza-tour guys chase the perfect slice, and even David Arquette turns Bozo the Clown into an intellectual-property saga. We get into why an obsession can unlock a different kind of interview, plus Greene's own confessions, from the Hay-Adams bathroom workaround to sports fandom.  Plus: the Mississippi miracle, and what China's van-based math prodigies say about how serious nations approach the future. And in the Spiel, life expectancy hits 79 in 2024, why that stat misleads even when it's true, and why good news gets swamped by the bad stuff.

State Rep. Zakiya Summers has filed the House version of the "Robert G. Clark Jr. Voting Rights Act." It's an effort to get out in front of what many expect will be the further dismantling of the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 by the U.S. Supreme Court. Summers isn't extremely optimistic about the measure's passage in the Mississippi Legislature this year, but says she and other lawmakers are trying to educate people about the dire impact voters could see from damage to the VRA.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards dives into the chaotic pulse of current events, from national political antics to local Mississippi drama. Kicking off with reflections on living in "interesting times," Clay tackles the ongoing war against cancel culture and spotlights tough conversations about Jackson's challenges, including systemic corruption and the fight for America's soul.   A major focus is Jackson State University's push for a new football stadium, with a $40 million ask from the state. Clay breaks down the debate: why JSU fans and alumni report zero donations to athletics despite high-profile seasons, comparisons to self-funded projects at Mississippi State and Ole Miss, and the case for an on-campus venue to enhance the student experience. He questions taxpayer funding without community commitment, suggesting fundraisers and master plans as alternatives.   Shifting gears, Clay discusses a proposed bill by Rep. Shonda Yates to allow law enforcement to seize vehicles involved in street drag racing. As a former street racer himself, he shares personal stories but supports cracking down on organized, dangerous events—like tube-chassis cars flipping on Medgar Evers—while emphasizing the need to protect casual car enthusiasts from overreach.   Breaking news hits mid-show: Don Lemon's arrest under the FACE Act for a church protest in Minnesota, sparking talk of "consequence culture" replacing cancel culture. Clay praises everyday black communities for steering clear of white liberal protests, avoiding manipulation, and features a caller highlighting the "paradox" black Americans face in politics—trapped between party loyalty and issues like immigration draining resources.   The episode wraps with an overnight shooting at a Jackson nightclub and a deep dive with Rep. Fred Shanks on the drag racing bill and PBM reform to protect independent pharmacies from big-chain monopolies, ensuring transparency and community access to affordable meds.   Unfiltered, no-holds-barred talk on politics, local accountability, and cultural shifts—strap in for raw insights and bold takes.

In this focused segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards tackles the hot-button issue of Jackson State University's push for a new football stadium. JSU is requesting about $40 million from the state for a "big old shiny castle on a hill," but Clay questions whether taxpayers should foot the bill when other schools like Mississippi State and Ole Miss raise their own funds through alumni donations and expansions.   Diving into the numbers, Clay reveals that JSU reported zero dollars in athletic donations for 2022—despite it being their most successful year under Deion Sanders, with sold-out games, national attention, and a SWAC championship. He argues for accountability: if fans and alumni aren't contributing, why should the state? While acknowledging the benefits of relocating from the current off-campus site (which could aid UMMC's expansion into a medical corridor), Clay insists any new stadium must be on-campus for the full college experience, not out in a remote area.   Clay shares honest takes on the surrounding neighborhoods, emphasizing common-sense solutions like fundraisers and master plans to generate revenue rather than relying on public money. Listener texts chime in, highlighting JSU's high FCS attendance but stressing the need for fiscal responsibility—comparing it to Ole Miss and Mississippi State's self-funded projects. Is $40 million worth it, or should JSU tighten the belt and rally its base? Clay calls it straight: without commitment, they might as well play in a high school stadium.   Raw, unfiltered debate on local accountability, HBCU pride, and taxpayer dollars—perfect for fans of no-nonsense Mississippi talk.

In this compelling segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards takes a call from a black listener in Mississippi who shares raw insights into the "paradox" facing black Americans today. The caller explains the ingrained push toward Democratic loyalty—rooted in narratives of Republicans as "racist clan members"—while highlighting how issues like the immigration crisis directly harm black communities by diverting resources to non-citizens. He recounts personal stories from Chicago and California, where schools and aid meant for struggling African Americans are redirected, forcing some to consider desperate measures like posing as immigrants for help.   The discussion dives into the internal conflict: criticizing Democrats feels taboo due to party allegiance, yet Republicans' policies could benefit all Americans. The caller praises the show for addressing these truths and urges prayer for "black America" to wake up, warning of media-driven divisions reminiscent of "Nazi Germany." He notes the backlash faced by figures like Nicki Minaj for supporting Trump and calls for equal enforcement of laws, regardless of race or politics.   Clay commends black communities for avoiding white liberal protests and emphasizes unity against manipulation. A must-listen for unfiltered talk on race, politics, and the immigrant debate—straight from a caller's perspective.

In this powerhouse segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards sits down with State Rep. Fred Shanks for a no-holds-barred chat on hot Mississippi and national issues. They kick off with the "Kraken" finally unleashing in Fulton County—six years after 2020—with DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard on the ground auditing ballots amid desperate reactions from election officials that scream guilt. Clay and Fred speculate on potential foreign ties (Venezuela? China?) and celebrate the momentum, even floating a bold "Trump 2028" reclaim.   Shifting to local streets, they break down Rep. Shonda Yates' bill to seize vehicles in drag racing busts. As fellow reformed South Jackson car guys, they support hitting organized chaos—like trailer queens flipping on Medgar Evers—while protecting casual enthusiasts from overreach. No more shutting down city blocks for high-stakes bets; it's time for real teeth in enforcement, inspired by JPD and Capitol PD feedback.   Finally, Fred draws from his 30 years as a pharmacist to expose the PBM racket—pharmacy benefit managers owned by big insurers and chains like CVS, clawing back millions and forcing independents to close. They call for transparency and reform to save community lifelines that sponsor Little Leagues, deliver midnight meds, and beat big-box prices. Listeners: Contact your reps to push PBM changes before independents vanish.   Unfiltered insights on accountability, street safety, and small-business survival—straight talk from two Mississippi originals.

America's welfare programs have long operated on the assumption that states and nonprofits could responsibly steward federal dollars with minimal oversight. But a series of explosive fraud cases—from California to Mississippi to Minnesota—have exposed just how broken that system has become, with lax oversight and minimal accountability leading to billions of dollars stolen from taxpayers.Shad White, Mississippi's state auditor and author of Mississippi Swindle, joins Oren to explain how his office uncovered one of the largest welfare scandals in modern history and what it reveals about America's safety net. They discuss why grant-based welfare programs are uniquely vulnerable to abuse, how federalism often undermines accountability, and how practical reforms like stronger enforcement, clearer metrics, and simpler program design can restore public trust while helping the families who need support most.

Clay Edwards kicks off the show with a high-energy intro, declaring war on cancel culture and shining a light on overlooked issues in Jackson, Mississippi—from systemic corruption to the fight for America's soul. He challenges "positive solutions" from long-time leaders and invites listeners to strap in for unfiltered, no-sugar-added talk radio. Transitioning live from the Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi studios on 103.9 FM WYAB, Clay introduces himself and guest Jamie Creel, a Shelter Insurance agent. They dive into local topics, including the new area code in North Mississippi amid rapid growth from Memphis migrants, the excellence of DeSoto County schools, and fierce opposition to school choice legislation that could undermine high-performing districts. The segment highlights the need for representatives like Senator McClendon to prioritize constituents over leadership, while expressing prayers for ice storm victims in areas like Tate County and Oxford, where building collapses have caused significant damage.

Clay Edwards hosts a lively radio discussion tackling cancel culture, local Mississippi issues, and national politics. He chats with guest Jamie Creel about the rapid growth in North Mississippi, the strong performance of DeSoto County schools, and opposition to school choice legislation that could disrupt high-performing districts. They praise Senator McClendon for representing his constituents effectively, including his Glacier Act bill, and express sympathy for ice storm victims in areas like Tate County and Oxford, where buildings have collapsed under the weight of snow and ice.   The conversation shifts to political accountability, emphasizing the need for representatives to prioritize their voters over leadership agendas. They critique the removal of ballot initiatives and discuss recent backlash against lawmakers who supported school choice. Edwards and Creel differentiate between cancel culture and "consequence culture," citing examples like a University of Mississippi employee fired for inflammatory comments and nurses losing jobs over extreme political statements on social media.   They delve into the Alex Prady case, debunking portrayals of him as an ideal citizen by sharing video evidence of his aggressive encounters with ICE agents, including assaults and property damage. The hosts argue that carrying a gun at protests requires responsibility and that Prady's actions led to foreseeable consequences. Broader political topics include election fraud allegations in Fulton County, Georgia, and Minnesota's laws allowing non-citizens to obtain driver's licenses that enable voting, skewing results in blue cities.   Edwards touches on personal fitness and mental clarity from lifestyle changes, then pivots to insurance advice, stressing the importance of proper coverage for valuables, renters' policies, and business needs amid volatile rates and storm damage. They highlight affordable life insurance options without exams for those with clean records.   The show wraps with a brief sports segment, picking the Seahawks over the Patriots in a hypothetical matchup due to strong defense, and a passionate rant on resisting Democratic narratives around immigration enforcement, election integrity, and threats to prosecute political figures like Trump. Edwards urges listeners to stay focused on core issues amid distractions.

The investigation into Heather Strong's disappearance ends in the most devastating way possible. What began as a missing person case becomes a murder trial that sends ripples through Florida's legal system for years to come.Heather Strong was 26 years old when her life was brutally cut short. A mother of two young children, McKinzie and Zachary, she had spent years navigating a turbulent relationship with her ex-partner Joshua Fulgham while trying to build a better life for her family. Her cousin Misty, who grew up with Heather in Mississippi, described her as the sister she never had.On February 15, 2009, in a storage trailer in rural Boardman, Florida, Heather walked into a trap. Lured by promises of hidden money, she instead found herself bound to a chair with duct tape, a plastic bag sealed over her head. According to court testimony, she remained conscious for approximately five agonizing minutes as she suffocated. Joshua Fulgham and his pregnant girlfriend Emilia Carr worked in tandem to restrain her, silence her pleas for help, and end her life.The investigation that followed was methodical and relentless. Deputy Billings from the Marion County Sheriff's Office pieced together witness accounts, jailhouse recordings, and forensic evidence. When detectives enlisted Fulgham's sister to wear a wire, Carr's admissions unraveled completely. On March 19, 2009, Fulgham led investigators to a shallow grave on property owned by Carr's mother, where Heather's decomposing remains confirmed what her family had feared.Both perpetrators faced justice. Emilia Carr was initially sentenced to death in 2011 by a 7-5 jury vote. Following the 2016 Hurst v. Florida Supreme Court decision declaring non-unanimous death penalty recommendations unconstitutional, she was resentenced to life without parole in June 2017. Joshua Fulgham received life without parole in April 2012. Heather's two children were eventually adopted into new families.This episode contains audio from court proceedings and investigative interviews.
