Human Trafficking show
This Monday we had our show on Human Trafficking that I helped produce. I was really nervous about this show because it is a really hard topic to discuss, but I knew what points that I wanted to really highlight. One of them was identifying the issue in Missouri and identifying that the issue does exist here. Another was to discuss why the issue exists in general (from a cultural perspective) and what can be done to stop it. I felt that the show was highly successful. We were able to pint out the points that we wanted to in the short timeframe that we had. There is so much surrounding human trafficking, that it helped to know what I wanted out of the discussion. Even then, there are some issues that I wanted to touch on that we didn’t have enough time for. We did have two call ins and several people in the discussion board. Good for us!
The next show that I’m going to start on is local foods. This issue seems fairly straightforward, but I want to see the intersection of the issues. Also, we want to start having happy hours at Uprise and plan for those to be the first few Mondays in December. That should be another way that we can engage and create an audience.
