The below tracks will start at the top of the segment I wrote and produced.
COVID-19 Long Haulers
"I made a promise to myself when I first got sick and when it first got worse in July ...when I get the chance to tell my story, I definitely will."
--Asia Durr
WNBA New York Liberty guard
Attack on the US Capitol
"I think we need to just say that this was a situation where all of the information was there, but no coherent picture actually ended up forming."
--Jytte Klausen
Professor of politics at Brandeis University and expert in domestic and international terrorism
The Wait for a Vaccine
“I am not a political animal. I don't belong to any political party. I don't think of myself as in any way attached to political views, but as a public health person, as a physician, to see the way this has all gotten tangled up in politics is just crazy. And it is causing people to get sick and people that die."
--Dr. Francis Collins
Dir. of the National Institutes of Health
Battling Breast Cancer During COVID-19
"We've spent the last 20 years wearing pink, and pinning pink ribbons on our vest, and I think it's so important for women to know that awareness without action really doesn't save any lives."
-- Dr. Deborah Lindner
Chief Medical Officer, Bright Pink
"The Glorias" (film)
"Gloria was never judging them or what women who stay at home or decide not to go out into the workplace. She was just advocating for choice. It's always for choice for women to have equal choice. Not that one thing is better for another, but to be true to what you need and what you want yourself."
--Julie Taymor
Director/Co-writer "The Glorias"
Galactic Federation?
A fun light-hearted end of the year segment featuring some great quotes from film and TV
"We Are The Radical Monarchs" (documentary)
"We get to kind of make history, or herstory as we like to say. And we get to be one tiny little part of it. Cause we all know that a lot of tiny parts can equal one big part."
(Film quote)
"John Lewis: Good Trouble" (documentary)
"Turns out that when you're as intentional as somebody like John Lewis, your whole life is a lesson."

& media
"They need to know that they’re not alone. We already know that some of them are afraid to speak up. But we need to let them know that there are more people behind them than there are against them."
"I am going to express myself in different ways because that’s what life is about. Someone out there may be wondering if they have what it takes. If I don’t hold to my authenticity, it can be a deterrent to someone else."
"Be the reason someone believes in the goodness of people."
