    AV Round Table: Ageism

    Ageism is a factor in this year's presidential race, with voter concern about how old is too old to be the leader of the United States.

Have they faced discrimination based on how old they are? Are they where they thought they would be at this age? Has age stopped them from trying to reach a certain goal?

    AV on Health: Weight Loss Drugs

    AV on Health: Weight Loss Drugs

    GLP-1 - Glucagon-like peptide-1 - is a class of medications used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus and, in some cases, obesity. That's the formal definition of the drugs many are using now solely to lose weight. It's the latest in the weight loss war. Nearly 48% of African American adults in the US are clinically obese, and Black women are especially affected as 4 out of every 5 Black women are obese. Is GLP-1 the magic weight loss medicine as some claim? Is obesity a disease, or a lack of will power? And what is the impact for diabetic patients who cannot get the drug because of increased demand from those who want to lose weight? Cardiologist Dr. Keith Newby on drugs and weight loss on Another View.

    The End of Family Court

    The End of Family Court

    It was a noble ambition - the creation of a juvenile court where specially trained public servants and benevolent judges would assist children and families. But according to Jane Spinak, author of "The End of Family Court", this dream has never been achieved and children and families continue to be failed by what she calls a "deeply flawed" court. We take an inside look at this unique form of family justice and why Spinak proposes a radical change that "embraces and supports all families in a fair and equal economic and political democracy".
