March 23rd's show:

* Tribute to Richard Aoki
First, we had a tribute to Richard Aoki, former Black Panther who passed away on Sunday. He was the only Asian American to hold a formal leadership role in the organization, and leaves a legacy of activism and third-world solidarity.


* Health Care Reform
We also look into the health care crisis and the potential for reform. We've gathered data from a variety of recent reports outlying the huge disparities in access and quality of health care along the lines of face, ethnicity, age, gender, and national orgin. We also play a radio documentary report from Amy Goodman of Democracy Now describing single payer health care systems and where the Obama administration stands on reform.


* Forever Nevermore
For the second hour the local band ForeverNevermore featuring Greg Gephardt and Nabeen Singha join us at the station for a session...of music.
