Ellie 2.0 Radio – September 28, 2024

We’ve got an Ellie’s Talking Head show this week, starting with highlighting idealistic NewGround, an LA-based group that seeks to help Jews and Muslims form friendships and have respectful conversations about their differing views on Palestine. I also share two wonderful stories of compassion—one about a UPS driver who helped a stranger with a life-threatening incident and a second about how VA high school students contributed to buy their school custodian a Jeep. On a less happy note, I share about a recent article in Nature documenting a 72% increase in attempted suicides by transgender and nonbinary youth who live in states that have banned gender affirming care. So tragic!
