The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | Darcy Olsen of Center for Rights of Abused Children

An astonishing 675,000 children are abused every year in America. Thousands of kids in foster care disappear in the course of a year. Some are missing for days or even weeks, and tragically, others are never found.


Fortunately, there’s an organization committed to doing something about these problems and other issues related to child protection in America.


The Center for the Rights of Abused Children, formerly known as Gen Justice, serves in a pro bono capacity for cases involving abuse, as well as helping kids who have been abandoned and trafficked. It’s also committed to strengthening laws that can save lives.


CEO Darcy Olsen, who joins this episode of "The Daily Signal Podcast," founded the organization in 2010. She’s also the mother of four children, all adopted from foster care.


Enjoy the show!

Consider This from NPR - What Does a Record Number of Black Candidates Really Mean for Republicans?

In a party not known for ethnic diversity, 22 Black candidates are running for Republican House seats this year. And for the first time, we could see two Black Republican senators serving simultaneously. The historically diverse lineup also includes Latinos, Asians, and Native Americans on Republican tickets for the midterms.

While some Republican see a shift toward Ronald Regan's vision of the party as an inclusive "Big Tent''. But others say that the party's problematic record on race continues to keep Black voters away - even those who consider themselves conservative.

Host Michel Martin talks to Theodore Johnson, a researcher, and writer whose work focuses on how race plays out in politics and policy. Johnson writes a column for the center-right news and opinion site, The Bulwark.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.

Today we’re talking about the beauty filters so many people use on social media. What’s the impact of this sort of warped reality on self-worth? The research shows it’s significant, especially for young girls, and that’s true even when we all know these types of filters exist.

First, you’ll hear from researcher Claire Pescott. Her research and expertise focus on how social media filters influence children even as young as 10 years old.

Then later, we’re joined by a social media influencer who is breaking stereotypes and having a positive impact online. Jessamyn Stanley shares how she stays unfiltered online and gives her take on social media trolls who try to put her down.
