Emergency Help to Haiti - The devastation caused by the earthquake in Haiti this week has been described as a humanitarian catastrophe. Representatives of non-profits in the United States and the Dominican Republic, neighboring Haiti, comment on the island's state of the emergency and current efforts to help survivors.
Also, Cesar Chavez: erased from textbooks? -- A proposal by the Texas Board of Education intends to remove from text books the stories of Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, Thurgood Marshall and other Latino and African American historical leaders. A coalition of national and Texas organizations are pressuring the education agency to preserve the place of these leaders of color in the history books.
