MARCUS AURELIUS CONTINUED: MEMBERSHIP IN THE COMMONWEALTH
We continue discussing Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, focusing on the relationship between the individual, rational being and the Commonwealth or "World City". This week we will be approaching the topic from the lens of self-interest. How does Marcus Aurelius' view of a Commonwealth of rational beings connect with notions of self-interest? Further, how do Marcus Aurelius' exhortations to rid ourselves of anger and promote tolerance and patience connect with one's self-interest? These are some of the questions on which we will focus for this week's episode of EthicsTalk.

SAVING THE COMMONWEALTH WITH BETHANY WOODY AND JOEL GALLEGOS
Spurred by government challenges to their ownership of the land to serve the corporate interests of the backers of the Harper government, Native Americans in Canada launched an effort to unite tribes around the nation to stand together to protect the commons of Canada. The land, water and wildlife are threatened by the Tar Sands project and other extraction industries that benefit the few at the expense of the many. Perhaps to the surprise of the organizers, the movement has spread throughout North America and then the world. Supporters realize that the protecting these precious natural resources is a cause that affects us all. On February 25th, Taking Back America discussed these issues with Bethany Woody and Joel Gallegos of the ANSWER (Act Now to Stop Racism and End War) coalition. Please listen and tell otehrs about this exciting new front in the war against corporate dominance of the planet and all its Peoples. This show was broadcast on March 16 on the Star Com Radio network.
Take Back America for the People is an educational nonprofit whose mission is to reveal to the American public the true costs of corporate control of the US government.

Meet Freeda Cathcart - ERA Candidate
Freeda Cathcart is running for the 17th House of Delegates in southwest Virginia. The Virginia Senate has recently passed the ERA but the House of Delegates has refused to bring it to a vote. Freeda promoted the petition to the White House to support the ERA to help make sure that the petition received enough votes before the deadline expired. She made sure that Virginia was well represented in the total vote count. Freeda is working hard to be elected this fall so that she can cast her vote for the ERA in Virginia's General Assembly. Freeda is the great-granddaughter of a suffragette who was a member of the League of Women Voters after women won the right to vote. Freeda is working to re-activate a local chapter of the League of Women Voters. Women need to use their power to vote to advance women's rights and they need to influence men to support their efforts. Freeda Cathcart has spent her life advocating for families in The Roanoke Valley and across Virginia. She's been a strong voice on issues of education and healthcare in Virginia. Freeda has helped shape public policy to improve the lives of middle class families and women. When elected Freeda will work hard in the General Assembly for families in our Commonwealth. A graduate of Roanoke College, Freeda has been a public school social studies teacher and has worked as a Reinsurance Specialist for Shenandoah Life Insurance Company. Freeda also has worked for the Child Health Investment Partnership as a Parent Educator where she helped families with newborn babies throughout the Roanoke Valley from different socioeconomic backgrounds.
As an appointee of Governor Tim Kaine, Freeda served as a Consumer Representative on the Advisory Board for Midwifery.
