-
NYC Mayor Eric Adams discusses the administration's new women's health agenda, which includes access to abortion pills at city-run health clinics, and various initiatives related to maternal health, sexual health and education and disparities in diseases.
- Colette Coleman, a writer focused on race and equity, talks about her reporting for the New York Times article "Selling Houses While Black" about the challenges faced, and strategies adopted, by Black real estate agents, who are underrepresented in the profession and earn less than their white counterparts.
- For the past two weeks, the Brian Lehrer Show asked for stories of the most defining news events of people's lifetimes, and most of the events were big, global events, like 9/11 and Pearl Harbor. Today, listeners call in to share the biggest news event or trend in their towns or neighborhoods.
