En tonårig kille i Kanada har insjuknat i fågelinfluensan av typen H5N1. Idag vårdas han på sjukhus och tillståndet beskrivs som kritiskt. Det som förbryllar experterna är att man hittills inte har hittat några kopplingar till sjuka djur. I Kanada har H5N1 spridit sig till drygt 20 fjäderfäuppfödare, och i USA pågår flera utbrott - där uppemot 50 människor har smittats. Vissa experter uttrycker nu en oro för att viruset ska mutera och börja spridas okontrollerat mellan människor. Hur allvarligt är det här viruset? Vad vet vi om den sjuka tonåringen? Och hur stor är risken för att vi står inför en ny pandemi? Gäst: Magnus Gisslén, statsepidemiolog på Folkhälsomyndigheten och professor för infektionssjukdomar vid Sahlgrenska akademin.

Two Spartan alumni are working to empower Black students in Michigan through mentoring and leadership development. Ongoing mentoring relationships have a powerful impact on young people. Research shows that students who have mentors in their lives are 55 percent more likely to enroll in college and 130 percent more likely to hold leadership positions in the future.  Rhonda Walker is a 1991 graduate of the College of Communication Arts and Sciences, and Detroiters may know her as the co-anchor of the weekday morning newscast at WDIV Local 4 News, Detroit's NBC affiliate. Off-camera, Rhonda is the founder of Rhonda Walker Foundation, an organization that works to empower inner city teen girls toward becoming strong and successful future leaders. The foundation's mentoring program boasts a 100 percent high school graduation and college enrollment rate. Walker says she was inspired to start her foundation by the young people she would meet when guest speaking at schools in Detroit. “I started realizing that you really can't change much in one conversation with children,” Walker says. “You have to have sustainable conversations featuring empowering messaging and expose the girls to resources and mentoring so they can see other professional women, particularly for these teen girls, that they can aspire to become.” Ideally, believes Walker, a mentor should be someone outside one's family. “It's a new voice that's able to provide you guidance from a different perspective. And it's also attention. When you're mentoring a teen girl, you're showing that she's important, that her interests and her concerns are important to you, and that you're taking your personal time to give that child attention. That means a lot. It's the personal attention, and it's also the positive messages, guidance, and support for the parents. “Sometimes someone outside of your family has the resources, the experiences, or just the similar interests that can meet that child where they are and really help them to dream bigger, aspire bigger, and help build confidence. They know that they have that special person that's rooting for them.” Walker says watching her father mentor children while she was growing up in Lansing also inspires her to give back. And she believes mentoring is important for everyone, including teen girls. “It's important for young black girls to realize that they can accomplish anything. And that sometimes when you're a minority, you don't see as many people doing the things that you aspire or want to do. And you think that it's because you're a minority. Or for some reason, those opportunities aren't available for you. The kids I work with are growing up in inner city Detroit in predominantly Black schools in predominantly Black neighborhoods. And when you grow up that way, you're not having a lot of exposure to what the real world looks like and having real world interaction with people from different cultures.” Walker describes how her mentees are responding to and processing the killing of George Floyd and the broad awakening people of all colors are having to the racism African Americans have faced for years. “It's also a time to reflect, too, on all of the opportunity that is out there for African Americans already. There are some injustices, but there is so much opportunity for us to change that. Our kids can go into the legal profession. They can become renowned judges. They can run for office and assume those leadership roles. “And I do think that the movement is so strong right now that a lot of companies are rethinking hiring and rethinking boards and rethinking what can they do as executives or as business owners to help provide more opportunity for African American people. “I'm very encouraged. I'm especially encouraged, too, by the diversity of those who are demonstrating and speaking out. They're from all walks of life, all ages, all races, and that's what our country is. “And I think sometimes we have to remind ourselves that this is a great country to be in, and that there are a lot of positive things that happen here. There's a lot of opportunity to change some of the things that need to be changed. I don't know, I'm just an optimist and I feel really good about where we are.” Walker says empowering teen girls is her way of giving back, and she encourages all of us to find our own ways to make our communities better. Tim Herd is a 2019 graduate from the College of Education. As a junior at MSU, Tim launched a student organization called Rising Black Men, a group dedicated to the mentorship of Black male undergraduate students at MSU. The group was so successful in its first year on campus that it was recognized as the student organization of the year and quickly drew attention from beyond East Lansing. Tim has spoken about Rising Black Men at institutions such as Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Southern California. He and his three fellow African American freshmen at MSU didn't always feel like they fit in and belonged at MSU when they first arrived. “I realized that my situation wasn't necessarily an anomaly and that was reflected across the institution. And I realized that four to six-year graduation rates for Black men at other four to six-year institutions was one of the lowest amongst other demographics. “I started to get involved with different organizations on campus, such as the Urban Educators Cohort Program and the Intercultural Aid Program. Being able to use those resources and the people who I came across, I decided in my junior year that it was time to be the change that I wanted to see. “I went about brainstorming with one of my mentors, Dr. Chezare Warren, a faculty member within the College of Education. And he was like, ‘You should think about creating your own group.' That was the last thing on my mind. I wanted to see how I could join and help find a solution. And the solution I came up with was establishing Rising Black Men.” Herd had the privilege of growing up in a two-parent household with college-educated parents in Grosse Pointe. “So in terms of that sense of belonging or that culture shock, that wasn't something I'd experienced because I'm originally from the east side of Detroit. But in the fifth grade, I moved to Grosse Pointe. But at MSU I saw a lot of students coming from Detroit Public Schools, and many experienced some type of culture shock from going from a predominantly Black neighborhood in a predominantly Black area to a place where there are 50,000 students. “And it's not just in terms of being a predominantly white institution, but just all types of people. We have a large population of international students. So that can be an adjustment, and it can be an adjustment for every student. “That sense of wanting to belong is something that I've seen. One of the biggest things I saw was a need for mentorship. And like Ms. Walker said, not just for Black men, but across the board. But if I was to pinpoint one problem or one area in which I see that there needed to be a solution for, it would be in that sense of belonging and feeling like you really belonged there.” Herd talks about how his organization connects college students with professionals and MSU students with K-12 students in the Lansing School District. “I really wanted to do that is to provide exposure because you don't know if you don't see. “So even for me, growing up in a two-parent household in Grosse Pointe in a middle to upper class neighborhood, I didn't see a lot of Black professionals prior to entering Michigan State. When I got to Michigan State, that was a shock for me because I hadn't seen other Black people who had their PhDs, and who were achieving at high levels. “For me, that was exposure that motivated me even more to want to first go into the field of education, but then also to pay it forward. And what I've done and what we've been able to do, or have been privileged to be able to do within Rising Black Men, is going to the K-12 school system within Lansing and work with young Black men. We talk with the students about things like financial literacy and that sense of belonging to help develop confidence. “So often you hear this narrative that Black men might not succeed at the same rate as other demographics and that Black men only have sports as their outlet to success. And if they don't succeed in sports, then they're not going to make it. But there are plenty of other outlets. The whole idea is to provide that exposure and mentoring. “So just being present in those spaces in K-12 is important because it shows that you're just there for them. We say ‘I'm here for you and I'm going to help you. And I'm going to connect you because my whole idea is it takes a village; nobody can do it alone.' That's what we try to provide within Rising Black Men. Building that village and providing that exposure and really helping with that mentorship is what we're all about.” Watch the MSU Alumni Office Facebook Live video of this conversation here.

How do we Preserve the value of Objective Journalism? Preserving the integrity of the journalism profession is something veteran WDIV Local 4 anchor Devin Scillian values a great deal. In late March, after watching a press conference where President Donald Trump again referred to the media as ‘Enemy of the people': Scillian made an impassioned plea to his audience. saying, "It's dispiriting because, I'm telling you right now, American journalists are working in insane conditions to try to bring you the latest in a situation that is unprecedented for all of us." Scillian and I have a similar view on the sanctity and value of objective journalism, that is why I am honored to feature him as a guest this week, to discuss the value of objective journalism.

Rhonda Walker has been helping Detroiters get motivated and ready for the day with her incredible energy, enthusiasm, impeccable style, and passion for her hometown for the past 20 years. A confessed morning person, this award-winning talented and versatile journalist starts her day at 2:00 a.m. to co-anchor the weekday morning news cast at WDIV Local 4 news, Detroit's NBC affiliate.  In 2003, Walker founded the Rhonda Walker Foundation.  “The mission is to empower inner city teen girls towards becoming strong, competent and successful future leaders,” Walker says. “My inspiration came from working in Detroit as a broadcast journalist and becoming involved in the community. I got to know a lot about the community's needs and got involved in a lot of different nonprofit and charity work. I've always been a lifelong volunteer since growing up in the Lansing area; it's just a part of who I am.  “The more needs I saw, the more I wanted to get involved. I wanted to jump in and start doing more. I started volunteering with various charities at first and then I really honed in on wanting to work with kids specifically. And at that point it just started feeling like I needed to hold myself more accountable and do something literally in my name that would really have an impact and make a difference.  “I started visiting schools and talking to teen girls about believing in themselves and being leaders and not followers, and goal setting, and making good choices, and choosing your friends properly, and just a lot of that messaging that kids need at any age. I certainly did. And it just grew from there. It was like this moment where God was talking to me and saying, ‘This is what I want you to do with your life and with the blessings that I've given you.' I feel incredibly fortunate to have this career. With that blessing, there is much to be expected of me and what I can do with my blessings. I want to empower kids in Detroit who are less privileged and have less resources and opportunities.”  The five-year program is for girls from eighth grade through high school.  “235 teens have completed the five-year program with 100 percent  high school graduation and college enrollment rates, and 95 percent college graduation. We have 51 girls in the Girls into Women core program right now and 100 middle schoolers currently in our RWF Academy afterschool program in 5 middle schools.”  “They stay in the program the entire time and we work on career and personal development. We have a mentoring program, we do health and wellness workshops, financial literacy, etiquette, goal setting, and college preparation and tours. It really is very comprehensive. And the personal development side is really important too, in terms of just building friendships and building confidence and problem solving and public speaking skills. And we really try to work with the kids on so many different levels where we meet them where they are. And we just try to build them up into being the best that they can be.  Walker talks about how broadcast journalism has changed over the years.  “It's like night and day from when I started. Technology, yes, plays a huge role. We try to navigate the technological changes and still do what's most important, which is to investigate and provide important information and interviews and talk with leaders. And we still try to deliver the important messaging that our viewers rely on us for, but the landscape is very different.  “And even right now, going through this pandemic, information and accurate information and timely information is so incredibly important. And we're doing it from remote locations, which makes it a challenge. But that's when you're really thankful for the extent of what technology can enable you to do. Ninety percent of our people aren't even working inside anymore. Everyone's working remotely and just kind of figuring out a way to do it, and we have done a lot of creative things to make it happen. But it's exciting. Change is a part of life. And the way technology works, you have to keep up with it. I love my career and I'm just ready to kind of take whatever comes my way and continue to navigate it.”  As for young people, like the girls at the Rhonda Walker Foundation, who want to follow in her footsteps?  “My best advice is to do what you're passionate about and don't let anything discourage you.  Find out what works for you and your interest and your passion.  “And one thing that technology does enable us to do is a lot of different things. Technology is everywhere, communication is everywhere, more so than ever before. There is so much more opportunity than there ever was from every single sector, from healthcare to any type of business that you can think of, where we can use our skills as writers and interviewers and storytellers and investigators. There are so many more ways to use communication skills now than when I was younger. No matter what your interest is, work hard to be good at it and don't allow anyone to tell you that it's crazy. You should go after it with passion and hard work and a commitment and just a mindset to never give up and be distracted by what other people might tell you.”  Walker grew up in East Lansing in the shadow of MSU. She knew she would attend MSU almost from the time she enrolled in preschool at the university.  “MSU is where I went to feed the ducks on the Red Cedar. It's where I learned how to play golf with my dad. And it's where I went to see basketball and football games growing up. I was green and white to the core as a kid. I went to cheerleading and gymnastics camp. I knew that campus like the back of my hand. As big as it is. I knew where everything was. I just loved it there.  “And when it came time to apply for colleges, my parents had us look at other universities. We traveled across the country. We went and looked at some of the historically black universities and colleges. And I went through the formalities, but I knew exactly where I wanted to go. Michigan State was the only place that I applied to. They had a great school of communications there, so it fit my major as well. But even if it didn't, I still think I wanted to go there. It's just such a beautiful place and the culture is so beautiful there. And I felt so at home there already, and it was so familiar, but yet I got to live on campus It was just the best of both worlds for me.”  Circling back to her foundation, Walker adds “I just think it's important that we all remember that it's upon each of us to give back and make our communities a better place in whatever you're passionate about. For me, it's kids and mentoring and empowering young people who are underprivileged. If you have a passion for working with teen girls and helping to empower, encourage, and build their confidence, Rhonda Walker Foundation would love to have you as a mentor and a supporter or a volunteer. But if that's not for you, then it could be something else. Maybe you like animals. Maybe you want to do something that benefits the homeless. It can be anything, but just find something that you can do to give back in addition to whatever it is that you do as a career and for work. The most important thing to remember while we're on this earth is that we have more responsibility than just to do things for ourselves and our families, but to help others who are less fortunate.”  MSU Today airs Sunday mornings at 9:00 on 105.1 FM, AM 870, and your smart speaker.

Welcome to another episode of Caffeine, Dreams, & Love, I’m your host - Kevin Alan Lamb. Today I have the great pleasure of being joined by the bass slapping, crochet wearing, handsome son of a gun, Steve Briere, of The Gasoline Gypsies. As fresh sounding as they are retro, the Gasoline Gypsies evoke the spirit of rock and roll …it’s music that helps us forget our cares, free our souls, and discover pieces of ourselves behind the eyes, and in the hearts of the ones we love. Their original songs feature unifying, foot-stomping anthems, that inspire their multi-generational audience to sing along to the sounds of fine vintage southern rock, rolled around in the grand ol’ grit of the Motor City…it’s music that moves … In the last few years, the Gypsies have racked up five Detroit Music Awards, been deemed one of the “Three Best Unsigned Bands in the USA” by JBL, and voted Best Original Rock Band in the 2018 WDIV Local 4 Detroit Viewers Poll. They are garnering regular radio airplay outside the Midwest, most notably in the Triangle markets of North and South Carolina. The Vagabundos, the Gypsies multi-generational, highly active, extremely colorful, and loyal fan tribe, are a driving force behind the band, accompanying them wherever their music flows. Managed by Jack Hunger, The Gasoline Gypsies are made up by Caleb Malooley, Steve Briere, Joe Makowski, and Neal Love. When I hear the word “Gypsy” I think of a wandering soul, traversing space and time to discover his or herself in the people, places, and natural wonders which make life worth living. If gasoline fuels a great journey, then dreams fuel the impossible and I really like the notion of what becomes possible when we do it together. A band is a family and The Gasoline Gypsies, are my family band.
