On the next Another View on Health, diabetes management expert Hope S. Warshaw, author of "Eat Out, Eat Well", helps us learn to eat healthy when we're eating at a restaurant. She will share with us the pitfalls of restaurant eating, skills and strategies for healthier restaurant eating, and gives us nutrition snapshots of the best and worst menu options for each restaurant type. Although the book was published by the American Diabetes Association specifically for those with diabetes, the lessons can be applied to all of us as we all strive for a healthier diet.

Described as the "New Negro Movement" and the "flowering of Negro literature", the Harlem Renaissance was the name of the cultural, social and artistic explosion that took place in Harlem between 1917 and 1935. Black writers, scholars, artists, musicians, photographers and poets flocked to Harlem where they could freely express themselves. But it was more than a literary movement...it was also a time of racial pride. On the next Another View poets and authors Tim Seibles, Remica Bingham and Shonda Buchanan give us a history lesson on the Harlem Renaissance and share the similarities between African American artists then and today.

April is "Minority Health Month" - and also the commemoration of the 30th anniversary of "The Report of the Secretary's Task Force on Black and Minority Health", also known as the "Heckler Report". This groundbreaking report was the first time the US government convened a group of health experts to conduct a comprehensive study of the health status of minorities in this country. As a result of this report, additional studies were done, such as the Jackson Heart Study that explored disparties in cardiovascular health and the Healthy Start program that brought infant mortality prevention to underserved communities. In addition, national standards were set to give guidance to health care workers on how to provide respectful and responsive services to minority patients. On the next Another View we'll examine the health issues that still plague African Americans, including obesity which is the driving force behind almost all diseases prevalent in the Black community.

Like many other illnesses and aliments, studies show that African Americans are more susceptible to heart disease than any other race. In fact, according to the American Heart and American Stroke Associations, about 45% of black men and 49% of black women have (CVD) cardiovascular disease. This resulted in more than 94,000 deaths in 2009. But why are the numbers so high among African Americans? Join Another View Producer, Lisa Godley and Another View on Health Co-Host, Dr. Keith Newby as they explore the causes and cures surrounding African Americans and Cardiovasular Diseases, particularly when it's induced by stress.

Every parent wants to do what's right in raising a child and there are childrearing techniques that are universally accepted, like reading to your young child, or having the "birds and bees" talk with your pre-teen. But are there additional things that African American parents should do that differ from other ethnicities? On the next Another View, education and relationship expert Alvean Lyons joins us to talk about parenting techniques based on the age of the child, and explains why she believes there is an African American "style" of parenting that must be acknowledged and embraced if Black children are to grow up to be successful adults.
