First hour: Should we psychoanalyze people from afar?
Second hour: RABJ's "Rochester Legends"
Political analyst and author Andrew Sullivan says it's time to demand a psychiatric evaluation of President Trump. Sullivan says Trump refuses to recognize reality or accept basic facts, and it's putting the country in danger. But is it wise to psychoanalyze someone -- even the president -- from afar? Is it possible? Sullivan's not the only one who's made such comments. We'll talk about what we know (and don't know) about the president, along with whether we tend to armchair-psychoanalyze people in our own lives. Our guest:
- Eric Caine, chair of the department of psychiatry at the University of Rochester
Then in our second hour, the Rochester Association of Black Journalists has produced a television documentary series and children’s book series called “Rochester Legends.” Both projects feature interviews with noted African Americans who have made significant contributions to the community over the years. The illustrated books are geared to the third grade level. They tell the stories of our guests, and their outstanding contributions to the Rochester community:
- Dr. Walter Cooper, research scientists, humanitarian, activist, and educator
- Dr. David Anderson, history re-enactor and community leader
- Constance Mitchell Jefferson, Minority/Women Business Enterprise Officer for the City of Rochester, and Constance Mitchell’s daughter
- Richard McCullough, meteorologist, president of the Rochester Association of Black Journalists, and owner of Mirusmedia
