The importance of aligning and strengthening your hips and feet to improve your balance is emphasized in this full-body, Classical Stretch episode. Balance can deteriorate as we age but just like muscles, balance can be stimulated, enhanced and improved through engagement. In this workout you'll strengthen your core and hips to improve your balance and posture, which help you move securely and stay injury-free.
Rain soothes and helps bring our focus inward to relax. With the healing energy of the rain, "Practice to Release Tension" takes you through a flowing sequence of hip openers to release anxiety, stress, and tension out of the body. The hip openers are beneficial for the body as a whole as our hips give us stability and balance, but our hips also hold emotions. The energy center/chakra, associated with the hips, is the sacral chakra and represented by water. When the sacral chakra is balanced, we're with the ebb and flow of life, fostering creativity and feeling comfortable with our sexuality.

KTWU's Theatre of the Mind presents an all-new production in the style of a 1940's radio play. Based on three classic stories and adapted by playwright Philip Grecian. "The Fall of the House of Usher" by Edgar Allan Poe; "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving; "The Cats of Ulthar" by H. P. Lovecraft. As has been the custom with these dramas, the actors often play multiple roles and employ vintage microphones to simulate radio's Golden Age with live physical sound effects. They portray period radio performers, and so the haunted presence of Poe's House of Usher, the hoofbeats of the Headless Horseman and the horrific fantasy with felines is created through "theater of the mind" in the imagination of the listening audience.
The one-hour program presents three of Edgar Allan Poe's tales: "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Cask of Amontillado," and "The Raven."

By the mid twentieth century, Mississippi's African Americans had suffered from nearly 75 years of slavery by another name - Jim Crow discrimination. In 1964 in Mississippi, people died in an effort to force the state to allow African Americans to exercise their constitutional right to vote. Although, the 50th anniversary of Freedom Summer has passed, the struggle for voting rights is still pertinent. According to the NAACP, states have recently passed the most laws limiting voter participation since Jim Crow. Moreover, these laws also disenfranchise other people of color, the elderly, poor, and disabled. With the 2015 anniversary of the Voting Rights Act as well as the upcoming presidential primaries and general election, voting rights will remain at the forefront of a national debate. With historical footage and interview with Freedom Summer architects and volunteers, as well as present day activists, 1964: THE FIGHT FOR A RIGHT uses Mississippi to explain American voting issues in the last 150 years.

Over 100 years before the COVID-19 pandemic set off a nationwide wave of fear and anti-Asian sentiment, an outbreak of bubonic plague in San Francisco's Chinatown unleashed a similar crisis. The death of a Chinese immigrant in 1900 would have likely gone unnoticed if a medical officer hadn't discovered a swollen black lymph node on his groin - evidence of bubonic plague. Fearing the city would become the American epicenter of the disease, health officials drew on racist pseudoscience to cover up the threat and protect San Francisco's burgeoning economy. As the outbreak continued to spread, public health officer Rupert Blue became determined to save his city. He established ties to Chinatown and ultimately proved that throngs of flea-infested rats-rather than the "foreign" habits of the Chinese-were the real reason the disease persisted. Based on David K. Randall's "Black Death at the Golden Gate: The Race to Save America from the Bubonic Plague" and directed by Li-Shin Yu.

According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, approximately 1 in 5 adults in the United States - 43.8 million, or 18.5% - experiences mental illness in a given year. The one-hour documentary CRAZY follows Eric, a diagnosed schizophrenic, faced with a critical choice - whether to comply with traditional mental health treatment or follow his own path to wellness. Eric's doctors want to medicate him for his own protection, but after eight years of anti-psychotic meds, Eric wants to refuse the drugs he believes are causing more harm than good. With extraordinary access, the film explores both sides of the story. Eric, his father and his attorney argue passionately for Eric's right to make his own medical decisions. Depositions of Eric's evaluating psychologist and social worker show how and why they feel forced treatment is necessary. CRAZY reveals an intimate portrait of the unpredictable and high-stakes trajectory of Eric's journey - refusing meds, seeking legal approval to use an advanced directive, being locked on a psych floor after being picked up by police, and deteriorating during a family therapy session. Through all of this, there's a glimmer of hope and a solution that eventually enables Eric to graduate from college and claim the recovery and a measure of the autonomy he so desperately craves. CRAZY brings the viewer into the story with extraordinary access to both Eric and his doctor's points of view. In the process, the documentary looks at involuntary treatment and explores the bigger issues and questions raised by this very personal experience.
