Bashar Al-Assad is now the former president of Syria—after being forced out by rebels over the weekend. It follows more than 24 years of what Syrian citizens described as a brutal dictatorship. According to the Biden Administration, the future of Syria is uncertain with a reported terrorist group now in charge. Michelle Nunn, the president and CEO of CARE USA, discusses how CARE is responding to what it calls the enormous humanitarian needs of vulnerable people in Syria.

People across the U.S. and the world are remembering the literary giant Nikki Giovanni. The poet, civil rights pioneer, author, educator and activist passed away earlier this week. She was 81. Ann Hill Bond, an Atlanta-based journalist and chair of the Fulton County Remembrance Coalition talks more about Giovanni’s cultural influence as well as her life and legacy.
