SUMMARY:On a Mission: The History of US Women Astronauts with Smithsonian Curator Emerita Valerie Neal
DESCRIPTION:Register and submit questions here. \nJoin us for an exhilarating journey through the history of US women astronauts with Valerie Neal\, emerita curator from the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum and expert on human spaceflight. \nSally Ride became a household name as the first American woman in space\, but scores of equally impressive women have also left their mark in space. On a Mission: The Smithsonian History of US Women Astronauts spans 45 years and 61 astronauts to share the epic journeys of women who made space for themselves in a male-dominated field. \nValerie Neal interviewed many of the US women astronauts to bring their experiences to life. She offers a culturally insightful history of their achievements\, the challenges they’ve faced\, and their distinctive stories. Collectively\, they’ve completed more than 100 space shuttle missions\, and more than 30 long-duration stays on the International Space Station and Russian Space Station Mir\, and they continue to prove themselves in present-day space exploration efforts. \nThe book includes 50 black-and-white photographs to complement the historical account. With its sweeping look from the first women astronauts to Christina Hammock Koch\, assigned to the first crewed Artemis mission around the Moon\, there is no comparably thorough book on America’s women astronauts. On a Mission is an inspiring tribute to unsung women’s history. \nRegister now to take part in this inspirational discussion!  \nAbout the Author: Valerie Neal is a space historian and Curator Emerita at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC. Her specialty is human spaceflight\, space technology\, and space science in the Space Shuttle era and beyond. At the Museum\, she collected more than 1500 artifacts of the shuttle era\, curated three exhibitions and eight documentary programs for the Smithsonian Channel (cable TV)\, published books and articles growing from her research\, lectured in the USA and abroad\, and gave many interviews for US and international media.  \nBefore joining the Museum\, she was a writer and editor for some 25 NASA publications on Space Shuttle and Spacelab missions\, the Hubble Space Telescope and other Great Observatories\, space science\, and NASA History. She participated in underwater astronaut training in Alabama and mission support in Houston for four Space Shuttle missions. She has taught American Studies and writing courses at multiple universities. Valerie Neal holds Ph.D. and M.A. degrees in American Studies and a B.A. degree in English and History.

SUMMARY:America’s Failed Response to the Opioid Crisis with Author Shoshana Walter
DESCRIPTION:America’s Failed Response to the Opioid Crisis with Author Shoshana Walter\nWith Special Guest Host Barbara Kingsolver\nRegister and Submit Questions \nJoin us for a special conversation between award-winning journalist Shoshana Walter and bestselling and award-winning author Barbara Kingsolver as they chat about Walter’s book Rehab: An American Scandal. In this work\, Walter\, a Pulitzer finalist\, exposes the country’s failed response to the opioid crisis\, and the malfeasance\, corruption\, and snake oil which blight the drug rehabilitation industry. \nToday\, more people have access to treatment than ever before. So why isn’t it working? The answer is that in America—where anyone can get addicted—only certain people get a real chance to recover. Despite record numbers of overdose deaths\, our default response is still to punish\, while rehabs across the United States fail to incorporate scientifically proven strategies and exploit patients.  \nIn this book\, you’ll find the stories of four people who represent the failures of the rehab-industrial complex\, and the ways our treatment system often prevents recovery. April is a black mom in Philadelphia\, who witnessed firsthand how the government’s punitive response to the crack epidemic impeded her mother’s recovery—and then her own. Chris\, a young middle-class white man from Louisiana\, received more opportunities in his addiction than April\, including the chance to go to treatment instead of prison. Yet the only program the judge permitted was one that forced him to perform unpaid back-breaking labor at for-profit companies. Wendy is a mother from a wealthy suburb of Los Angeles\, whose son died in a sober living home. She began investigating for-profit treatment programs—yet law enforcement and regulators routinely ignored her warnings\, allowing rehab patients to die\, again and again. Larry is a surgeon who himself struggled with addiction\, and would eventually become one of the first Suboxone prescribers in the nation\, drawing the scrutiny of the Drug Enforcement Administration.  \nBe sure to register now to participate in this urgent conversation and learn insight on how we might fix the system to save lives. \nAbout the Author:  \nShoshana Walter is a reporter for the Marshall Project covering the criminal justice system. Her reporting has been honored as a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and Selden Ring\, and she has won the Knight Award for Public Service\, the Edward R. Murrow Award\, and the Livingston Award for Young Journalists. She started her work on the treatment system at The Center for Investigative Reporting\, where her work appeared in The New York Times Magazine\, in newspapers\, and on NPR stations across the country. She is based in Oakland\, California. \nAbout the Guest Host:  \nBarbara Ellen Kingsolver is a Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist\, essayist\, and poet. Her widely known works include The Poisonwood Bible\, the tale of a missionary family in the Congo\, and Animal\, Vegetable\, Miracle\, a nonfiction account of her family’s attempts to eat locally. In 2023\, she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for the novel Demon Copperhead. Her work often focuses on topics such as social justice\, biodiversity\, and the interaction between humans and their communities and environments. \n  \n
