But the Rev. Liz Theoharis, a joint coordinator of the Poor Peoples Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival, says take away our poverty, not our children.

And on December 12, there will be a historic election in the UK and battle lines are drawn in the contest for the UK's next Prime Minister. This includes Boris Johnson, the right wing conservative candidate of the Tory party who is being backed by Donald Trump, and Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the UK's Labour Party.

Today on Sojourner Truth: Today, families torn apart by child welfare agencies across the US: there is an increasing epidemic of children being removed from their families and placed in foster care, not because of abuse but because the families are poor or because their mothers are victims of domestic abuse. But the Rev. Liz Theoharis, a joint coordinator of the Poor Peoples Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival, says take away our poverty, not our children. Whats going on and how are families and communities fighting back? Our guest is mother, grandmother and retired nurse Sidney Ross-Risden with the Global Women's Strike - Los Angeles. Also, we have begun to bring you video from protests happening in Chile sent by Orin Langelle and Anne Petermann of the Global Justice Ecology Project who are representing ST on the ground in Chile. We will speak to Anne Petermann on what she is witnessing on the ground, as mass protests against Chile's right wing government and their austerity measures continue. And on December 12, there will be a historic election in the UK and battle lines are drawn in the contest for the UK's next Prime Minister. This includes Boris Johnson, the right wing conservative candidate of the Tory party who is being backed by Donald Trump, and Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the UK's Labour Party. Joining us to give the latest on the ground is London-based Sam Weinstein, a volunteer with the Corbyn campaign and Momentum, and group outside of the Labour Party, but who are supporters of Corbyn.

Today on Sojourner Truth: Hurricane Dorian is now lashing South Carolina, where there is concern about storm surge and flooding. This, after leaving the Bahamas devastated. In particular, the islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama. The hurricane stayed over Grand Bahama for more than 41 hours, which is historic. It has caused massive devastation. According to the Bahamian government, at least 20 people thus far have been killed, but that number is expected to rise. Also, there is a list of over 550,000 people who are unaccounted for. We speak with Jeremy Collymore, the Special Advisor on Resilience Planning and Disaster Risk Management to the Vice Chancellor of the University of the West Indies. He was the former Executive Director of the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA). CDEMA is now mobilizing to respond to the crisis. We also speak with Dr. ChenziRa Davis Kahina, a Caribbean-based educator, cultural heritage artist and administrator, naturopathic therapist, ordained ministerial priestess, community developer and visionary. Also, the UK is in turmoil as conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson, backed by Donald Trump, faces defeat after defeat in Parliament as he tries to push forward on a no-deal Brexit. Our guest is Sam Weinstein, based in London, England.

In particular, the islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama. The hurricane stayed over Grand Bahama for more than 41 hours, which is historic. It has caused massive devastation. According to the Bahamian government, at least 20 people thus far have been killed, but that number is expected to rise. Also, there is a list of over 550,000 people who are unaccounted for.

"Because we live in a country where our most admired citizens are labeled "winners," we often fail to appreciate the tremendous value of defeat. Well, thank goodness for Sam Weinman, whose ode to dropping the ball, missing the shot, failing to rise to the occasion is a beautiful—and important—reminder that second place often trumps first. A blissful read." — Jeff Pearlman, New York bestselling author of The Bad Guys Won About WIN AT LOSING: Most people are driven to win. Whether it is in competitive sports, political or artistic endeavors, academic prestige, or any number of pursuits requiring talent and persistence. The desire to win has driven humanity’s most talented individuals to produce unfathomable achievements and to excel beyond their highest expectations. However, this fixation on winning can also crush the human spirit. Like many parents, author and award-winning sports journalist Sam Weinman noticed how this need to win was preventing his sons from coping with inevitable losses (such as a lower grade on a test or a botched tennis match). Wanting to give his sons perspective, and having witnessed many greats in the world of sports weather crushing defeats, Weinman set out to discover how some of the most celebrated public figures were able to bounce back after humiliating, often epic losses. In WIN AT LOSING: How Our Biggest Setbacks Can Lead to Our Greatest Gains (A TarcherPerigee Hardcover; on sale December 20, 2016), Weinman interviews pro athletes, business executives, politicians, and Hollywood stars, and consults leading psychologists and coaches, in order to understand the essential life skill of “learning to lose.” It turns out, being a good loser is exactly what we should aspire to be: resilient, objective, and persistent. With inspirational and deeply personal stories from the likes of Emmy-award winning actress Susan Lucci, pro golfer Greg Norman, and presidential nominee Michael Dukakis, WIN AT LOSING offers a unique and much-needed take on the upside of losing, and why it is essential to enjoying a truly successful life. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: SAM WEINMAN is the Digital Editor of GolfDigest.com, where, during his tenure, the website has grown to boast the largest digital audience in golf and has been nominated for several National Magazine Awards. Prior to that, he was the lead hockey and golf writer for The Journal News and LoHud.com, during which time he launched the popular hockey blog, "Rangers Report." For more than a decade, Sam's work has regularly appeared in Gannett newspapers around the country, including USA Today, and he has contributed to Golf World, Yahoo! Sports, ESPN the Magazine, and Sports Illustrated. He is the recipient of several national writing awards for his coverage of the PGA Tour and the National Hockey League. He lives with his wife and two boys in Rye, NY, where he coaches multiple youth sports teams.
