We know a lot about the enslavement and emancipation of the black descendants of African slaves. Much less is known, however, about human trafficking in America. Human trafficking is about the continued enslavement of men, women, and children living in our cities and towns. Often, we see human trafficking as simply an international problem. We fail to recognize and acknowledge that it is a serious problem for our nation that is not just confined to the seedy parts of town. Joining us today to help us better recognize victims and the pervasiveness of the problem is Gabrielle Thompson. Gabrielle is the executive director of Free for Life International, an organization founded in Nashville, TN in 2006. She will help us become better trained observers and potential rescuers of people placed in our path.

As the Democratic Party veers further and further LEFT, it is losing lifelong members like Brandon Straka. Less than a year ago, Straka posted a video about his frustrations with the Democratic Party that ignited a mass movement of people who are abandoning the Democratic Party and the extremism of Leftist politics. Brandon, who happens to be a gay man, has been a guest on this show before. In this interview, he updates us on his activities and what he hopes to accomplish.

Across the country, law enforcement officers are under attack. Politics plays a major role in the disrespect for the work police officers do. As a consequence, we see thousands of them walking away from their jobs. Yet, we know we need them to be safe. Without police officers, we would live in a state of nature where the bad guys would always have the upper-hand. Joining me today to discuss these issues is Lt. Randy Sutton. Randy Sutton is a retired Police Lieutenant with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, a nationally known commentator on Law Enforcement issues, a speaker, an actor on the big and small screen and the bestselling author of four books on policing and The Power of Legacy. He is also the founder of the Wounded Blue Foundation and has a daily radio show, BLUE LIVES RADIO on the America Out Loud Network.

Is socialism the solution to inequity and injustice in America, or is it an empty set of promises leading to greater pain and suffering? Young people inspired by leaders like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) and Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) believe greater government control and spending is a cure-all that can solve the nation’s most pressing problems. What they are pushing has failed everywhere it has been tried. Venezuela is the most recent formerly prosperous nation where socialism has had a devastating impact on the people. Joining me today to discuss America’s move towards socialism is Nina Pellegrini. Nina was born in Havana and migrated to the U.S. in 1961. She watched the transition in Cuba and was able to escape with members of her family. Nina is now the founding director of Californians for Property Rights, she manages her family business Vita Productions, and she is an active member of the California Republican Party.

Socialism in America is on the march. The long shot candidacy of presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has opened the floodgates to successful socialist candidates such as clueless millennial Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, followed by millions of young people. In the program today, I interview Terry Beatley, the Founder of the Hosea Initiative, Author and Host of What If We’ve Been Wrong? She is a pro-life activist seeking to expose the triple threats of Marxism, Socialism, and Progressivism. Terry’s Book: What If We’ve Been Wrong?

President Trump set up a special commission in 2017 to investigate voter fraud. Kris Kobach headed the investigation which was met with much opposition from Democrats. Unless it serves their immediate interests, Democrats contend that voter fraud does not exist. In fact, they recently voted (HR 1) to lower the voting age to 16 and to make it possible for illegal aliens to vote in certain states. This episode of Be the People focuses on two critical national issues: Voter fraud and President Trump’s efforts to build a wall between America and the southern border. Kris Kobach, former Kansas Secretary of State, is my guest. Mr. Kobach now heads the organization #WeBuildtheWall. It is an effort to use private donations to assist the government in building a wall between Mexico and the United States on private land.

What does it mean to have a transformed life? Transformation is about change, metamorphosis, and alteration. There are millions of people who are hurting and need an intervention into their lives. Should the intervention take the form of a treatment program or something that can lead to a radical transformation that changes them forever? Joining me today to discuss changed lives is Nancy Alcorn. Nancy is the founder of Mercy Ministries rebranded as Mercy Multiplied.

Colin Kaepernick, a former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, is back in the news after having settled a multimillion-dollar collusion case with the National Football League. It all started in 2016 when Kaepernick set off a firestorm by kneeling during the National Anthem. Settling the case has ignited speculation he may soon sign with the New England Patriots or the Carolina Panthers. Burgess Owens joins me to discuss these matters and much more. Burgess is a former National Football league player for the New York Jets and the Oakland Raiders. He now serves as the executive director of One Heart Project Utah.

The Democratic Socialists of America are on the rise. We now have several in Congress, including the famed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, and Bernie Sanders. These members of Congress hope to remake America in their ideal of what a fully socialists country would look like. Never mind that socialism has failed around the world, most recently in Venezuela. The socialists believe that socialism is the cure for poverty, inequality, and injustice. Joining me today to make sense of the nonsense is Dr. Ming Wang. Dr. Wang lived through the cultural revolution in China and is a fierce opponent of socialism and communism. Dr. Wang lived through the cultural revolution in China before coming to America. He is the founding director of the Wang Vision 3D Cataract and LASIK Center in Nashville. He is also an honors graduate of Harvard Medical School and MIT and has a doctorate in laser physics.

Conservative students across America attend colleges and universities where freedom of speech is no longer an institutional value. Censorship and political correctness dominate the institutional values of many secular and religious institutions. As a consequence, conservative students often find themselves marginalized and disrespected on campus. Fortunately, many of them survive the hostile environment and are positioned to advise others on how to navigate treacherous waters. Joining me to discuss these issues is Danielle D’ Souza Gill. Danielle is an author, activist, and patriot. She is also the daughter of filmmaker, author, and political commentator Dinesh D’ Souza. Danielle is a millennial whose wisdom far exceeds her years.

America has blood on its hands. Like North Korea and China, America is coming dangerously close to becoming a society that tolerates third trimester abortions and infanticide of infants who survive the abortion process. Governor Andrew Cuomo sparked a national debate when New York State passed the most liberal abortion law in the nation allowing the termination of full-term babies under certain circumstance. When it looked as if things could not get worse, Governor Ralph Northam of Virginia, a former pediatrics doctor, made the heinous comment that a baby born alive “would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.” Wow! Joining me today to discuss abortions is Dr. Kelly Victory. Dr. Victory is the President and founder of Victory Health. She is a physician, cowgirl, and a consultant dedicated to improving America’s healthcare system. For Further Insight: Website: http://kellyvictorymd.blogspot.com/
America’s educational system is broken and mired in politics. Black and Hispanic children are among the ones hurt the most, especially those in urban centers. Home schooling and school choice should be viable options for the urban poor. Under President Bush, the District of Columbia had an opportunity scholarship program that gave urban parents choice. Although students achieved considerable success, President Obama who was beholden to teachers’ unions ended the program to the detriment of the students. Marie Stroughter, a conservative black activist and home schooling mom, share her views about what can be done to restore choice to black families and others who suffer from limited educational opportunities.

Our destinies as Americans are intertwined. When Black America sneezes, White America gets a cold. In this episode, we discuss the formation of the Congressional Black Caucus and the NACCP and their connection to the hopelessness and misery found in many black communities. My guest, Burgess Owens, a former NFL player for the Jets and Oakland Raiders explains “It’s Not White Supremacists, It’s Black Elitist”. In fact, one could argue that black political power, as exercised by current Democratic Party leaders, has had a negative impact on the flourishing of black communities while the leaders have enriched themselves by benefiting from private and public largesse.

We often read food labels before purchasing food products. We do this because we care about the health and safety of our families. What about the drugs in our medicine cabinets? Millions of Americans are taking drugs made in China that lack the Food and Drug Administration safety inspections we take for granted in America. Joining me today to discuss this critical issue is Rosemary Gibson, a senior advisor with the Hastings Center, a bio-ethics research institute. Gibson and Janardan P. Singh are co-authors of China RX: Exposing the Risks of America’s Dependence on China for Medicine.
