By Sunita Sohrabji Jan 2, 2026 Babies from East and South Asian American communities and African immigrants are most vulnerable to hepatitis B infections. Minnie Zhou photo via Unsplash (copyright free) For decades, U.S. public health policy has treated hepatitis B vaccination at birth as non-negotiable: every newborn, regardless of maternal risk factors, receives a first dose within 24 hours of life. The approach mirrors global guidance from the World Health Organization and

“You’re Korean, right? I mean, you don’t look very Chinese. It’s a compliment by the way,” my classmate said with a stifled laugh, nudging her friend. I’d recently transferred into a new, mostly white middle school. This wasn’t going to be an easy transition, I soon realized. By Jeannine Chiang I remember the intense side-eyes as kids around me turned their heads, dropping their gaze to the jade pendant my grandma gifted me for good luck. This was soon after schools reopened

Deportations to African and Muslim-majority nations, which skyrocketed during the Trump administration, continue to disproportionately harm Black immigrants who built their lives in the U.S. By Selen Ozturk A Tuesday, January 30 briefing held by the Ohio Immigrant Alliance (OHIA) and the Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP) highlighted Broken Hope : Deportation and the Road Home — a new book featuring interviews with 255 deported long-term U.S. resident immigrants — as th

Johnson told Face the Nation this week that the 2020 election was unconstitutional based on a debunked legal theory that if applied would undo the core of American democracy. In an interview with Face the Nation  this past weekend, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson repeated the false claim that the 2020 election was unconstitutional. Johnson’s statement, part of an ongoing campaign of election denialism by Republican lawmakers to cast doubt on the legitimacy of Joe Biden’

Alabama is among just a handful of states where public transit is paid for not by the state but cities and counties, according to their ability and willingness to pay for it. By Mark Hedin When it comes to supporting public transit services, Alabama is near dead last among states, creating serious barriers for Alabamians just trying to get to work or to school, to church or to vote. For people with disabilities, the situation can be life-threatening. That was the message at a

The Biden Administration’s executive order on AI places many standards on the emerging technology, but experts say much more is needed to safeguard the election process. By Sunita Sohrabji Generative artificial intelligence has the potential to dramatically disrupt the outcome of the 2024 US election, said experts at a briefing Nov. 27, hosted by the Brennan Center for Justice. Once confined strictly to science fiction, AI is now everywhere. Generative AI’s capabilities to ma

I met Maria Martin in the late 1970’s when we were part of a handful of Chicano radio activists. Like many pioneers, she was a visionary who created a space for Raza and women through programming and mentorship in a professional field that rarely accepted minorities. While in the Bay Area in the 1980’s we regularly collaborated on projects and news stories with mutual respect and camaraderie. With her characteristic smile, good nature and professionalism, Maria graciously pen

If you are a Texas High Schooler in the Fall the prospect of Friday Night Lights Football games is a given. This is such a natural occurrence for so many, that the idea of a high school career without the possibility of watching your team throw the pigskin around home or away seems unfathomable. Yet, for the second smallest school in Texas this has been the case year after year after year.   By Evalice Arguello  The athletics program in Marathon is alive and well, there is no

I am not about to claim to be a Texas Ranger Super Fan! The truth is, just like basketball, the season is too long to hold my attention. The truth is, for me, it’s more like, “Wake me up if they make the playoffs.” I’m like Hall of Fame Laker ‘Jabber,’ who was accused of only hustling in the playoffs. Not to compare myself to Jabber, but my comparison to basketball skills would be closer to Stanley from The Office. All that said, I, like most in North Texas, have suddenly dev

Selena Gomez was made famous when she entered the Disney child star world as Alex from Wizards of Waverly Place. The show was a massive hit and would last multiple seasons and one Disney Movie. When Gomez’s break-out role was no more, she shifted gears and began to focus on her music career. Unlike many other child stars, she was able to quickly transform herself from a child actress to a chart-topping superstar. Nisie But it wasn’t an easy road for Gomez. In an interview she

The Fort Worth Power and Light Company Power plant was first built in 1912. The power plant was the first main source of power for Fort Worth Texas. The old and now abandoned building still boasts the dramatic Beaux-Arts style of architecture that was once popular in the early 1900s. But despite the glimpses of a faraway time that can still be seen, the old power plant continues to become more disheveled. Nisie The Out Seers Now to protect potential trespassers, all the broke
