    AV on Health: Clinical Trials

    Clinical trials are research projects that study the effects of new medical interventions, like drugs, devices, vaccines or behavioral therapies, to determine if they are safe and effective for humans. Only 5% of clinical trial participants are African American. What makes Black people so reluctant to participate in the trials? Why is Black representation important? And what can be done to increase trust? We explore those questions during Another View on Health.

    AV Round Table: Jim Crow 2.0?

    More than 3 million people voted in last month’s statewide redistricting referendum special election, with the majority voting "yes" to allow for a temporary map that favored Democrats. The Virginia Supreme Court threw out the vote saying the process used to create the amendment was unconstitutional. This decision, on the heels of the SCOTUS ruling that guts the Voting Rights Act, has many in the Black community concerned that their voting rights may be headed back to the Jim Crow era of unfair practices, intimidation and even violence to keep Black and other marginalized people from voting. The Another View Round Table tackles this and other current events.

    The Voting Rights Act

    The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states may not draw congressional redistricting maps based on race, but they can redraw them based on party affiliation. Critics say the decision further erodes fair voter representation, especially for Black and brown people. What will be the impact of Louisiana v. Callais in the upcoming midterm elections? And how will this ruling affect Virginia's Supreme Court decision on redistricting in the Commonwealth?

We have a frank conversation about the hidden struggles of Black professionals and where they turn when they need help with our guests, Dr. Alvean Lyons, Dr. Harold Neighbors, and Another View on Health co-host Dr. Keith Newby.

    Finding Your Kinfolk

    The 250th anniversary of America has sparked renewed interest in family lineage. Many people of European descent can trace family roots back to 1776 and beyond. But for many African Americans, the search is more difficult because of systemic erasure of records during slavery. We share ways for people of color to find their family story. Meet the folks of Kinfolkology and learn how their work is "dedicated to remembering enslaved ancestors as kin and kindred in full partnership with descendent communities."

    AV Round Table: Restoring Civility

    On Easter Sunday, President Donald Trump threatened Iran on social media. He used profanity, mocked Iranian leadership and threatened to bring harm to Iranian civilians. By most accounts, the tone was shocking. Whatever happened to civility and diplomacy? Is there such a thing anymore as "polite conversation"? Are we becoming a society bereft of manners? Our Another View Round Table pundits discuss these questions and more.
