b'Look Toward the Mountain is a podcast series that tells the stories of Japanese Americans who were interned at Heart Mountain during WWI demonstrating the innovation, creativity, and resilience that enabled the Japanese American community to endure this unjust ordeal. I speak to Philadelphia Japanese American Citizens League Board Chair and Japanese American filmmaker Rob Buscher, host and producer of the podcast about what had been for decades a largely erased history and its connections with injustices today.

A new Gallup poll has found a record-high 70 percent of Americans now support legal same-sex marriage, an increase of 10 points since 2015. BUT with 2021 already seeing a record number of anti-LGBTQ legislation, the question is - are we as inclusive as we think we are? I speak with Dennis Schleicher, an author, a Hate Crime Survivor and Volunteer Crisis Counselor.
