"2460-Hold please..." Sam and Amanda chat all things Les Miserables! One of the early British invasion musicals of the 80s, Les Miz has become one of the most classic and beloved musicals of all time. Our hosts chat through the countless global productions, landmark concerts, and even their own collegiate production. A show that feels oddly familiar in 2020 means the story must continue to be told. "Dream the dream!"

This week we are pleased to highlight the Coalition for the Homeless. As the nation’s oldest advocacy and direct service organization, the Coalition for the Homeless has helped homeless men, women, and children for almost 40 years. The Coalition has worked though litigation, public education, and direct services to ensure that affordable housing, sufficient food, and the chance for a living wage are fundamental rights for our civilized society. Black Americans count for 13% of the population but account for over 40% of homeless people. By stabilizing people through shelter, moving them into permanent housing, and implementing assistance programs to keep them in their housing, we can not only reduce, but eliminate homelessness. The Coalition's How to Help page outlines resources, volunteer opportunities, and specific action plans to help those in need.
