Hi there,

May 1 and 2 are Public Media Giving Days. With lies and disinformation flooding the media landscape, and the Trump administration increasing its attacks on journalists, the need for independent news questioning and challenging those in power is more critical now than ever. We do not take any government or corporate funding, so we can remain unwavering in our commitment to bring you fearless trustworthy reporting on the issues that matter most. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

A Conversation with Danny Glover

It’s Danny’s birthday. He’s 52 today, and he’s more than a “Lethal Weapon.” Danny has appeared in a number of films, including “Beloved,” “The Saint of Fort Washington,” “Lonesome Dove,” “The Color Purple,” “Mandela” and “Bopha.”

But while he boasts an impressive number of credits in the movie industry, Danny Glover is heavily involved as a champion of human rights. With a long record as a fighter for civil rights in the United States and against the former apartheid regime in South Africa, he is the goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Development Program.

Guest:

  • Danny Glover, actor and human rights activist.
