11:00:00 ~ It’s a Matter of Your Health with Dr. Veita Bland
Each week, Host Dr. Veita Bland talks with a medical professional who is an expert in his/her field. Topics are wide-reaching and may include health maintenance, nutrition, sleep and fitness, and specific illnesses, and current treatments, protocols, and procedures to address them. "It’s a Matter of Your Health” explores topics such as heart health, hypertension, breast cancer, Alzheimer's, hospice, pediatric dental care, anxiety, and more. The Host renders the subject matter easy to understand. Throughout the year, topics cover all stages of life, including pediatric and geriatric health. The show will also provide information on how to maintain the highest quality of health and life possible. Dr. Veita J. Bland is a clinical hypertension specialist and board-certified in family medicine in Greensboro, North Carolina.

This week: Medical Gaslighting – If you've gone to the doctor only to be told that your concerns aren't serious or that you're "just stressed," you aren't alone. This unfortunately common behavior, sometimes called medical gaslighting, leaves patients — especially women — feeling dismissed. And it can cause them to minimize or ignore what may be very real, painful, and even dangerous symptoms. Retired physician and professor Dr. Kristy Freeman-Woods joins Dr. Veita Bland to discuss the 5 common signs of medical gaslighting and what to do about it.

15:00:00 ~ Latino USA with Maria Hinojosa
We

continue our Genias in Music series, remembering notable Latina women

and their contributions throughout history. This week we examine the

legacy of La Lupe, the legendary Cuban singer known as the queen of

latin soul. We question some of the myths that attempted to delegitimize

her music and look at how her identity as an Afrolatina influenced the

racist and sexist characterizations of her. But by singing and moving in

the ways she was known for, she was resisting her erasure and claiming

her space –– whether audiences understood it or not.

Also on the show… Dahlma Llanos Figueroa takes us on her journey from public school teacher and librarian to novelist.
