We’ll be singing and dancing our way to better community health for African Americans, as we save human babies, wildlife, domesticated animals, and the environment – here and in Africa, at this benefit for the International Fund for Africa at www.ifundafrica.org.

- “SOUL FOOD-FOR-THOUGHT – the Cancer Project’s 5-worst gourmet burger list, and quick – what if you took the letters from “McDonald’s Restaurants”, shuffled them, and came up with something else, very descriptive of “McDonald’s Restaurants” – what would that be? Listen!
Shame on McDonald’s for its latest promotion targeting teens and forcing them to swallow its corporate diet of death.
Now archived from last week: Ethiopian native, Houston physician, and president of the INTERNATIONAL FUND FOR AFRICA (www.ifundafrica.org), DR ANTENEH ROBA, guest on this week’s program, compares slavery to the slaughterhouse after his recent visit to the slave dungeons of Ghana where he was attending an international vegetarian conference. He tells us about the vibrant vegan and environmental movements in Africa, and the wonderful Black History Month benefit his non-profit is planning for the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco on February 12th – “SOUL FOOD-FOR-THOUGHT”
