In this episode of the Visible Voices Podcast, I am in conversation with Dr. Shanda McManus — family medicine physician, narrative medicine educator, and author of Brother Epistles (2026 by Split/Lip Press). In 1992, Shanda's brother Monir was killed in a drive-by shooting in North Philadelphia. He was 20 years old. Thirty years later, she began writing him letters — and what emerged is a memoir that is part grief, part social commentary, and entirely healing. We discuss what it means to carry compounding grief, how medical training can become a place to hide from loss, the systems that failed Monir long before that night in 1992, and what narrative medicine offers both patients and clinicians who have no place to take their pain.  Website: https://www.shandamcmanus.com/ ▶ Subscribe on YouTube @resaelewissmd  New Visible Voices episodes on Wednesdays.

Behind the doors of a North Philadelphia rowhome, a self-proclaimed pastor was building something far darker than a congregation.

From Ashes To Authority by Dr. Keith C. Pretlow https://www.amazon.com/ASHES-AUTHORITY-DR-KEITH-PRETLOW/dp/B0GY6CY7C9 At four years old, Keith C. Pretlow witnessed the kind of violence that could have shattered his life forever. Instead, through grief, faith, discipline, and the unwavering love of those who refused to let him fall, he began a journey from pain to purpose. From Ashes to Authority is a deeply personal and powerful memoir about surviving trauma, defying expectations, and discovering that broken beginnings do not have to determine a person’s future. From the streets of North Philadelphia to the classrooms, kitchens, military spaces, and leadership roles that shaped him, Dr. Pretlow shares how education, mentorship, and spiritual grounding helped transform loss into legacy. This is more than a story of perseverance. It is a testimony of healing, identity, Black excellence, and the life-changing power of people who choose to see potential where others only see problems. With honesty, heart, and hard-won wisdom, Dr. Pretlow shows that the odds are not destiny and that purpose can rise from even the deepest ashes. For anyone who has ever been counted out, misread, wounded, or forced to fight for a future they could not yet see, this book is proof that survival can become strength and pain can become authority.

My mother is the definition of strength. Raising five sons in North Philadelphia during the '60s and '70s, she endured the heartbreaking loss of her 18-month-old son, Kevin, yet continued to provide a loving home for the rest of us. Despite losing her own mother and grandmother at just 18, she poured everything into her children.Because of the values, duties, and responsibilities demonstrated by both our parents, none of us four surviving brothers have ever been incarcerated. We grew up well-loved, following a blueprint of kindness and service—even spending summer days as children cleaning train stations just because the job needed doing.Mom, you sometimes wonder if you did a good job. At 89, the answer is clear: you and Dad were foundation builders. Though your mobility has changed, our love, respect, and appreciation for you remain unshakable.This "Take it from Tim N 2" episode is for you. You are appreciated.

The Work to Ride program basically started with an idea that I had about using horses and youth combining those two to make a difference in the lives of children.“骑马计划”项目基本上源于我一个想法，即把马匹和青少年结合起来，从而改变孩子们的生活。Our facility, Chamonix Equestrian Center, is located in Philadelphia. And it is bordered on two of the most crime-ridden neighborhoods here in Philadelphia.我们的设施查莫尼克斯马术中心位于费城。它毗邻费城两个犯罪率最高的社区。One is North Philadelphia and one is West Philadelphia. We have children that come from those neighborhoods.一个是北费城， 一个是西费城。参加这个项目的有来自这些社区的孩子。Being in the program has kept me away from a lot of stuff like getting involved in drugs and getting related things that usually happen in the street.参加这个项目让我远离了很多事情，比如吸毒和街头常见的那些相关活动。When I come to the barn, I'm always very happy. I'm usually excited, usually ready to ride.当我来到马厩时，我总是非常开心。我通常很兴奋，随时准备骑马。The horses that we use in the program are donated. The kids in the Work to Ride program are primarily responsible for taking care of horses.我们项目中使用的马匹都是捐赠的。参加“骑马计划”的孩子主要负责照看马匹。On any given day, they're responsible for chores, cleaning up the stables, taking care of any medical needs that any of the horses may have.每一天他们都要负责杂务、清理马厩、照顾马匹，满足它们可能会有的任何医疗需求。It's a big responsibility. It is a lot of work to do. But all the work like is contributing to the one important thing is taking care of the horse.这是一项重大的责任。有很多工作要做。但所有这些工作都有助于一件重要的事情，那就是照顾好马匹。And if take care of the horse, then we're able to ride and it all leads up to playing in the games and just good management.如果我们照顾好马，那么我们就能骑马，这一切最终都是为了参加比赛，同时进行良好的管理。I feel like I've built an individual bond with each and every horse we have at our barn. Being at the barn is very like homey. It's very comfortable and I feel safe.我觉得我和马厩里的每一匹马都建立了深厚的联系。待在马厩里很有家的感觉。这里非常舒适，让我感到安心。

In this episode of The Blueprint, 76ers TV Play-by-play announcer Kate Scott interviews Philly native and current coach of the University of South Carolina Women’s Basketball team, Dawn Staley, about her latest venture as an author. Staley, also a Hall of Famer, Olympic Gold Medalist, and NCAA Champion (to name a few of her accolades), sheds light on her North Philadelphia roots, passion for the city’s sports teams and the future of women’s basketball. Her memoir, Uncommon Favor: Basketball, North Philly and the Life Lessons I Learned from All Three is out now.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An inspiring conversation between Michael and Dawn Staley about her book "Uncommon Favor: Basketball, North Philly, My Mother, and the Life Lessons I Learned from All Three." A three-time Olympic gold medalist, six-time WNBA All-Star, and the first person to win the Naismith College Player of the Year award as both a player and coach, Staley has shattered expectations at every level of the game.

Matthew Garcia has been in jail for 26 years for second-degree felony murder. He didn't even have a gun, yet he has a life sentence. As an adopted child from North Philadelphia, Matthew has turned his life around in remarkable ways. He is a published author with a book called "Raw Reflections" and graduated with college courses from Villanova, St. Joseph's, Bryn Mawr, and Widener University. Matthew also created his own mentoring program called the Real Rap Program and has scholarships for at-risk youth with Councilman Kenyatta Johnson. Despite these achievements, he remains behind bars due to Pennsylvania's harsh felony murder law. This petition seeks to change the felony murder law in Pennsylvania to make lifers like Matthew eligible for parole. His case shares similarities with Derek Lee's case that the PA Supreme Court is ready to rule on, including 17 amicus briefs filed on behalf of individuals like him. Please support Matthew Garcia by signing this petition and advocating for fairer sentencing laws in Pennsylvania!   If you would like to help Matthew out, the petition is below https://www.change.org/p/change-pennsylvania-s-felony-murder-law-to-allow-parole-for-lifers?recruiter=1338786924&recruited_by_id=1f98e0d0-13f6-11ef-8e42-110cd3ef6ae3&utm_source=share_petition&utm_campaign=petition_dashboard&utm_medium=copylink#FREEMATTHEWGARCIA

On today's show we are taking a short walk through the history books. As some of you know, I've been building apartment buildings in Philadelphia for much of the 2010's. We assembled numerous properties over the span of several years. Many of these homes in North Philadelphia were built in the early 1900's. These homes were very traditional townhouses that were made of structural brick. The party walls were supporting walls for the homes on either side of the walls. If I compare construction of similar vintage in other cities, the method of construction was vastly different in Philadelphia, and other cities.-------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/11/2024): 3:05pm- According to a report on NBC Nightly News, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump now leads President Joe Biden among voters aged 18 to 29 by 18% (58% to 40%). Interestingly, Biden won the demographic outright in 2020. On Monday, the Biden Administration announced a new plan to forgive student loans for up to 30 million Americans. And during a visit to North Philadelphia on Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris discussed the merits of wide-spread student loan forgiveness. Could this be a strategic attempt to appeal to young voters? 3:30pm- Karoline Leavitt—National Press Secretary for the 2024 Trump Campaign—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's upcoming campaign appearance in Pennsylvania. Though the Biden campaign team has been unwilling to confirm participation in any presidential debates, Leavitt emphasizes Trump's ready to debate “anytime, anywhere.” PLUS, Leavitt recaps Trump's viral visit to a Georgia-based Chick-fil-A restaurant where he ordered 30 milkshakes! If you're interested in seeing Trump in Schnecksville, PA this Saturday visit: https://www.donaldjtrump.com/events 3:40pm- Happy Birthday to Henry! But should adults be celebrating their birthdays after they turn 21? Matt says you shouldn't be allowed to have another party until you turn 100. 3:50pm- Former NFL running back OJ Simpson has died at age 76 after a battle with cancer. Simpson was, of course, accused of killing his wife in 1995—though, was ultimately acquitted. 4:05pm- On Thursday, former CBS News correspondent Catherine Herridge testified before the House Committee Hearing on the Press Act. During her opening statement, Herridge said: “CBS seized hundreds of my reporting files including confidential source information” which she believes “crossed a red line.” She continued, “if confidential sources are not protected, I fear investigative journalism is dead." 4:30pm- Luke Broadwater and Charlie Savage of The New York Times write: “Right-wing House Republicans on Wednesday blocked legislation to extend an expiring warrantless surveillance law that national security officials call crucial to gathering intelligence and fighting terrorism, dealing Speaker Mike Johnson a stinging defeat after former President Donald J. Trump urged lawmakers to kill the bill. In an upset on the House floor, the measure, which would extend a section of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act known as Section 702, failed what is normally a routine procedural test. On a vote of 228 to 193, 19 House Republicans, most aligned with the ultraconservative House Freedom Caucus, joined Democrats in opposing its consideration.” You can read the full article: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/10/us/politics/fisa-trump-johnson-house.html 4:50pm- Dustin Volz and Lindsay Wise of The Wall Street Journal note that “absent congressional action, [Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] will expire in April. But [Speaker of the House Mike] Johnson might have an out, as some experts say the law could potentially continue for another year because of how and when the secretive court that oversees the program grants annual approval for the categories of intelligence collection it allows. Those annual certifications were recently granted by the FISA Court, according to Biden administration officials.” You can read more here: https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/kill-fisa-trump-creates-new-headache-for-speaker-johnson-over-spy-powers-vote-96ead8a8?mod=hp_lead_pos3 5:05pm- Congressman Scott Perry—Representative for Pennsylvania's 10th Congressional District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the potential reauthorization and expansion of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Rep. Perry notes that FISA has been used improperly to collect warrantless surveillance of American citizens. Alarmingly, despite technically expiring on April 19th, the program can continue to operate for an additional year even without congressional reauthorization. You can learn more about Congressman Perry here: https://perry.house.gov 5:25pm- Rupa Subramanya of The Free Press writes: “Filmed above Baghdad, from a U.S. military Apache helicopter, the grainy black-and-white video opens with a voice instructing the pilot to ‘light 'em all up.' Then, there's open fire: a torrent of bullets flying into a small group of people on the ground. The pilots believed that two of them were carrying weapons over their shoulders. As it turned out, the pilots were mistaken: what they thought were guns were actually cameras, carried by a photojournalist and his assistant. Employees of Reuters, Saeed Chmagh and Namir Noor-Eldeen, were among the at least eight civilians killed by this attack in July 2007. That month, the news agency issued a Freedom of Information request for the footage taken from the helicopter, but it was ultimately blocked by the Pentagon.
