The Testimony of Anita Hill I 153

In July 1991 President George HW Bush nominated Clarence Thomas to the US Supreme Court. Initial reaction to the nomination suggested there would be a contentious Senate confirmation battle that would probe Thomas’s conservative views on issues such as abortion and affirmative action. But there was no real concern that Bush’s pick might not be approved. That is until one woman’s testimony threatened to derail the entire process. In this episode of History of the 90s we look back at the moment when the little know concept of workplace sexual harassment was catapulted into public consciousness. This is the testimony of Anita Hill. Guest Info: Rev. Dr. Traci C.

Why it’s time to repeal the oil tanker ban on B.C.’s north coast

It’s been six years since the federal government passed Bill C-48 — the so-called ‘tanker ban’ — which prevents large oil tankers from loading or unloading crude off British Columbia’s northern coast. Now, with changing attitudes about resource development and new Indigenous-led energy projects on the rise, critics say it’s time to revisit that legislation.

Like every single year in the 90s, 1996 was jam packed with unforgettable events and cultural moments.

In this episode of History of the 90s we are going to dig a little deeper into the stories that captured our attention thirty years ago. These are 10 of the most memorable stories from 1996.

Choosing DBS

Supported by Abbott. Podcast Summary: Overview of DBS for Parkinson's Disease In this episode, we discuss Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), a therapy used for over 20 years to manage Parkinson's symptoms when medications aren't enough. DBS involves surgically implanting electrodes in the brain, connected to a battery pack in the chest, to improve motor symptoms and normalize brain activity. Patient Stories: Ed McQuaid, diagnosed in 2018, had DBS in 2023. He went from taking 8-10 pills daily to none, regaining independence in activities like dressing and playing golf. Margaret Burns-Kohn, diagnosed in 2015, also had DBS in 2023. She eliminated severe dyskinesia and regained the ability to perform daily tasks like tying shoelaces. Abbott Liberta RC System Features: Dr. Mitesh Lotia Smallest rechargeable battery Wireless charging, just 15 minutes a week Remote programming and precise stimulation with directional leads Key Points: DBS isn't just for advanced Parkinson's—earlier intervention can help. Surgery doesn't limit physical activities, and most find it less daunting than expected. Next Steps: Visit lifewithdbs.com to connect with patient ambassadors. If interested, discuss DBS with your neurologist and consider scheduling an evaluation. Full benefits are typically seen 4-6 months post-surgery. Learn more about your ad choices.
