The Christian Church - at the epicenter of racism, and the fight against it, in our country. Some experienced the Church and its teachings as a way to overcome bigotry and hatred. Others experienced the Church and its teachings as the way to subjugate others and keep, especially African Americans, "in their place". In this time of racial reckoning in America, what is the role of today's Christian Church? On the next Another View, the work of one local congregation learning how to fight racism and join the journey towards racial justice. Our guests are Cyrus Cormier, author of "Wandering Through the Fire", and Lynn Underwood, author of "The First Stone".

What does it say about our society when in the city of Norfolk alone, ten children were shot in the month of July? Two of them died. Halfway through 2021 and 23 children have been shot in this city - and juvenile shootings are happening throughout Hampton Roads. We continue our conversation about the trauma of gun violence with Norfolk Police Chief Larry Boone, who calls gun violence a public health crisis. We'll get his take on how to stop juveniles from shooting each other, and what new tools the police department can use to help stop the violence.

An African American university president and classical cellist shares his story of navigating race and the cultural divide as a leader in academia and the arts. As one reviewer put it, "As a child musician, he met with Coretta Scott King. As an adult educator, he sat at Maya Angelou's holiday table. But it is his success as a Black intellectual navigating highly charged social issues that makes his story urgently important." Join us for a riveting conversation about race and leadership with Dr. Ron Crutcher, author of "I had No Idea You Were Black."

The perception is that college binge drinking is a "white college issue" and not really of concern at historically black colleges and universities (HBCU)...but the truth is binge drinking is problematic no matter the racial makeup of the student population. According to a study of student behavior by the Century Council, 54% of full-time HBCU students who drink engage in binge drinking, compared to 64% of students at predominately white schools. The difference is in the way the binge drinking occurs. On the next Another View on Health, we'll explore the dangers of binge drinking with guest host, cardiologist Dr. Keith Newby, and emergency room physician Dr. Clarence Clarke. Join us for the next Another View on Health, Friday, November 21 at noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM, or stream us live on this blog!
