In 1964 in Mississippi, people died in an effort to force the state to allow African Americans to exercise their constitutional right to vote.

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.

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.
