Another View The Radio Show Podcast

Half the Sky is an award winning national bestseller written by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. In October, WHRO will present a two night documentary based on the book which explores oppression that women worldwide face, and how they turn that oppression into opportunity and hope. The documentary examines issues such as forced prostitution, gender-based violence, maternal mortality and sex trafficking. On the next Another View we'll talk with Edna Adan, founder of the Edna Adan Maternity Hospital in Somaliland, about her fight to end maternal mortality, and we'll talk about issues women face right here in Hampton Roads with Jennifer Fish, Ph.D, Director of the Women's Studies Department at Old Dominion University, and Ruth Jones, Executive Director of the YWCA-SHR. Join us for Another View Friday, September 28 at noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM, or stream us at whrv.org.
