The past several weeks have prompted unprecedented levels of turmoil and unpredictability due to rising alarm over COVID-19. While American society has taken precautionary measures to counter the spread of the virus, those most vulnerable to societal neglect remain most impacted. Coronavirus did not create the stark social, financial, and political inequalities that define life for so many Americans, but it has made them more strikingly visible than any moment in recent history. Unfortunately, some of the intersectional dimensions of these structural disparities remain undetected and unreported. On Wednesday March 25th, Intersectionality Matters teamed up with the African American Policy Forum (AAPF) to premiere a new virtual conversation series entitled “Under the Blacklight: The Intersectional Vulnerabilities that COVID Lays Bare”. On this episode, you’ll hear a condensed version of that conversation, which featured six incredible speakers and drew an audience of 1,300 people over Zoom. In the coming weeks, we'll continue hosting live events that bring together artists, activists, thought leaders, scholars, service-providers and others on the frontlines of the fight against COVID-19. Each Wednesday we’ll bring you a virtual conversation over Zoom, which will be released as an episode of Intersectionality Matters! the following week. With: Eve Ensler — Tony award winning playwright, performer and activist; Founder of V-Day and One Billion Rising Laura Flanders — Author and broadcaster; Founder of GRITtv and host of the Laura Flanders Show Eddie S. Glaude Jr. — Professor of African American Studies, Princeton University Ai-jen Poo — Director, National Domestic Workers Alliance Dorothy Roberts — Professor of Law and Sociology, University of Pennsylvania Alvin Starks — Director, Equality Team, Open Society Foundations Music by Blue Dot Sessions Produced and Edited by Julia Sharpe-Levine Additional support provided by Andrew Sun, Emmett O’Malley, Michael Kramer, Alanna Kane, Janeen Irving Twitter: @IMKC_podcast, IG: @IntersectionalityMatters, Fb: Intersectionality Matters with Kimberlé Crenshaw #IntersectionalityMatters

Troy created this CD with the goal in mind of having a resource for Protestants to go to in order to help them get past misconceptions they might have about the Blessed Virgin Mary which he himself used to believe, but discovered to be untrue during his conversion.

On Wednesday March 28, 1979 at approximately 4:00 AM the chain of events that would cause the partial meltdown of one of Three Mile Island's nuclear reactors unfolded. At the time Three Mile Island was managed by the Metropolitan Edison Power Company and the Vice President being Jack Herbein. At Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station in Dauphin County, PA the secondary cooling system on unit 2 malfunctioned. This caused the temperature in the primary coolant to rise. A series of valve malfunctions lead operators to believe that the coolant water was full, so they stopped pumping replacement water. Because a valve was stuck open water was boiling away and exposed the fuel core raising its temperature. The fuel rods became damaged and released radioactive material into the water. Following this there was a partial release of radioactive gases. There was a recommended voluntary evacuation of people within a five mile radius of the reactor which was later extended to a twenty mile radius. Following the accident there were protests to stop operations at Three Mile Island. Harry Blose was born on January 24th, 1960 in Harrisburg, PA. Harry was raised in Duncannon, PA and graduated from Susquenita High School in 1977. At the time of the Three Mile Island accident he was nineteen years old. He was living with his parents and siblings in a house along the Susquehanna River in Duncannon, PA about ten miles from Three Mile Island when the accident occurred. This event made him more conscious of alternative power sources and their possible effects.
