DIVA TAUNIA'S BACKSTAGE PASS RADIO PROGRAM

NEW MUSIC FEATURE: The Bayliens. WLS LOVELY AND TOPIC: This week's show will be the first in a series of co-hosted shows with my friend Samantha. Samantha is a school counselor with a Masters in Education, and she also holds Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Social Justice & Education Administration. Additionally, she is also a minority (Chinese-American) and has dealt first-hand with weight issues. The first show of the series will be about "The word FAT." The meaning of the word as a descriptive term, as a weapon, and our reaction to the word when used in our society. We'll also discuss how the word fat applies to different minorities, and the expectations we have about weight in our society. We definitely welcome callers on this topic! (Upcoming topics that will likely surface in this show: "Is Obesity a Disease?" and "Size Acceptance vs. Fat Acceptance.")
