This week you’ll hear one of the few interviews with the US Olympic torchbearers . . . we’ve got Majora Carter, who on a regular day is Executive Director of Sustainable South Bronx, an organization she founded, which works for environmental justice in the South Bronx. But this was an unusual week for her: Majora tells us what it was like to carry the Olympic torch through crowds of protesters this past Wednesday in San Francisco. Plus – hear what happened when she pulled the Tibetan flag from her sleeve...

And, we’ll be joined by conservative columnist Robert George, from the New York Post, reporting on the week’s news, plus Avis Jones-DeWeever, of the National Council of Negro Women, shares her views on how everyday people are coping with what many now admit is our economic recession.
