Reparations For Forced Or Coerced Sterilization
In the first segment, I discuss the reparations the state of California is paying to victims of forced or coerced sterilization. I break down the history behind these practices, why it happened, and why this is such an important topic to talk about in reference to our current political atmosphere. In my second segment, I am joined by Caitlin Geer. She is the host of the podcast - Switching Geers! We discuss the origins of her podcast, toxic work environments & a fraud scandal involving COVID unemployment insurance funds at her job.
