RAISING ME

RAISING ME

In a lot of different situations, homeless youth are spoken for; often in law-making, in the media, and in education, people assume what homeless youth would need. We want homeless unaccompanied youth to be able to speak for themselves. RAISING ME is a podcast produced by Starting Right, Now (SRN) and WEDU, with support for Humana Foundation and Hillsborough Education Foundation. We're getting ready to blow up the best kept secret - beautiful unaccompanied youth.

    Cardiac Cowboys

    The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
