Episode Description
Do you understand what it means to be an activist ? To promote social justice, one is aware of their community and their community's needs. An activist can be anyone who cares about a cause. Hosts Ruhani and Rose tackle these touchy topics. Ruhani reports on critical social justice and activism movements outside this country including the farmer’s movement in India, women’s right to drive in Saudi Arabia, Ni Una Menos in Argentina, fighting for democracy in Hong Kong, and several others. Rose shares details of her favorite activists in the healthy food movement, including chefs and farmers. They both interview budding pop/AC recording artist, Valentina, with her newest single, Lifted Me. The upbeat, positive song follows suit to reveal the eighteen-year-old as an accomplished stylist, songwriter and performer who is devoted to delivering music with heart and purpose, as introduced by her debut, There’s No Stopping Me Now. You’ll get to a sneak peek at these two empowering anthems. The three ladies believe in standing up for social justice. Enjoy the show!
