#NewYear - New Opportunities & Challenges: What’s ahead!

Happy New Year!  Happy 2015!  On this show we spend some time reflecting on New Year’s resolutions. Do you have one? Are you going to keep it?  Get some tips for how to have a healthy 2015.  Then our next segment takes a close look at the often overlooked issue of civil asset forfeiture.  Heard of that before?  It’s an important topic to learn about— and you can, on this show.  Next up is an interview with a very special guest, leading civil rights organizer, Rashad Robinson from ColorOfChange.  Get the inside scoop on what’s going on, what’s next, and what YOU can do.  Last but far from least, we talk with Marilyn Watkins of the Economic Opportunity Institute — and hear her hopes, dreams, and strategies for city, state and federal legislative solutions as we go into 2015.
