Rising Up With Sonali

Rising Up With Sonali – June 16, 2023

This week, well examine the federal charges that former president Donald Trump is facing around his acquisition of classified documents, his refusal to turn them over, his incriminating statements made about them in the presence of others, and more. My guest will be retired judge and Truthdig contributor Bill Blum. Then, Vonne Martin of Center for Popular Democracy Action will explain why climate activists braved hazardous air last week to gather in front of the White House demanding President Joe Biden cancel the Mountain Valley Pipeline project in West Virginia and others like it in Alaska and the Gulf Coast. Finally, author and speaker Frank Forencich will describe the impact that purpose-driven activism has on our mental and physical health. He is the author of the forthcoming book, Activism is Medicine: Health and Relevance for the Human Animal.
