Description:

Monterey Park in East Los Angeles recently fell victim to a mass shooting. Last week, the shooter opened fire in a dance hall during Lunar New Year celebrations, killing 11 people and injuring nine others. Special guest Elise Hu, host at NPR, was supposed to take her three daughters to perform at that festival. She reflects on the tragedy and her search for hope. Would stricter gun laws make a difference?

Plus, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is standing by his state’s decision to reject a high school Advanced Placement course in African American studies, calling it “woke indoctrination.” What’s behind this decision?

And special guest Sergio Peçanha, columnist at the Washington Post, discusses his recent article, “Hug an election denier,” and how we can embrace those we love despite disagreeing with them.
