On today’s broadcast we will be joined by author LeRon Barton to discuss his book Straight Dope: A 360 degree look into American drug culture and issues related to the Drug War. The book is based on a series of one on one interviews Mr. Barton conducted with several people on the subject matter. Mr Barton also maintains the blog Mainline Publishing and you can link up with him on Twitter.

Of course I will be discussing some the day’s news headlines and more.

In the news,

• Detroit man convicted of killing teens apologizes for not getting justice for black victims
• A documentary about the Black Panther Party is showing at the Sundance Film Festival 
• President Barack Obama will not meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
