Poor nations in debt to the rich, "Everything I Never Told You", Child rearing and welfare.
Denise Morris hosts this episode dealing with the crushing debt owed by poor nations to wealthy financial institutions; a new novel about a Chinese-American girl; and how ideas of child rearing intersect with ideas about social welfare.

We also hear a discussion of KBOO's mission of providing a way beyond the sadness and guilt provoked by atrocities carried out by our government.
