We have so much to talk about and so little time, but the ladies who make up the Another View Round Table are back in the studio and ready to share their thoughts. Topping the discussion will be Donald Trump. He's the only current or former president to be indicted on criminal charges. What does all this mean for his political future and for the 2024 presidential election? There are very few places you can go where people aren't talking about the Montgomery Brawl. We'll be discussing it as well! Also, affirmative action was established to improve opportunities for people who've been subjected to discrimination. Now that the Supreme Court says colleges and universities can no longer take race into consideration, what will that mean for diversity on college campuses? Finally, we're dealing with a lot these days when it come to our mental and emotional health. Our ladies will share what they do to keep things in check. Guest Host and Another View Producer Lisa Godley talks to round table pundits: Daun Hester, Gaylene Kanoyton, Alvean Lyons and Carol Pretlow as they tackle the topics that everyone is talking about.

We talk with Dr. Marc Latta, a cardiac care physician associate, and accountability and life coach for Black men.

Despite the "quit smoking" campaigns and social stigma surrounding the habit, African Americans are second only to Native Americans and Alaska Natives in the number of people who still smoke. And of African Americans who still light up, three in four smoke menthol cigarettes; menthol makes it easier to start - and harder to quit - smoking. Cardiologist Dr. Keith Newby and Rita Miller, Tobacco Use and Dependence Treatment Coordinator with the Virginia Department of Health, talk about the dangers of smoking and offer specific ways to quit.

What do the cities of Nashville, Sacramento, Boston, Memphis, and Norfolk have in common? They have all hired African American police chiefs. And all of these "top cops" had a negative run-in with law enforcement in their youth. Now they, among many others, have decided to change the culture of policing from the inside, amid backlash from officers and the Black community. On one of his final interviews before leaving Hampton Roads, former Norfolk police chief Larry Boone talks about the challenges of "policing while Black"; changing the attitudes and biases of overzealous officers, while at the same time convincing Black and Brown communties that change is possible but takes time. As one police chief put it, "I'd be called a coon, a sellout, Uncle Tom by the Black community. I'd be discriminated against in many different ways by non-Black communities". So why do they do it? Chief Larry Boone shares candid insight with Another View.

Dr. Jajuan Johnson from William and Mary shares the history of the historic event that emancipated enslaved African Americans in this country. And, we broadcast live from our parking lot with food trucks chock full of cuisine unique to the occasion!
