Public Access America Sunday A.M #LiveStream Noon Eastern 9 A.M Pacific 11 A.M Central#New #Podcast #Episode #Free #BigBrainPodAly Raisman, Simone Biles, McKayla Maroney and Maggie Nichols testified before the Senate on the sexual abuse investigation involving the former U.S.A. gymnastics team doctor Lawrence G. Nassar. The gymnasts also received an apology from the F.B.I. director, Christopher A. Wray, for the handling of the case.Today I heard on the news four top gymnasts testified in Senate hearings. That 5 seconds given to this travesty did not do it justice, and upon listening to the testimony I learned that justice is all these four women wanted, not as much for themselves, but for the over 100 athletes Larry Nasser was allowed to abuse long after thecae was introduced, investigated, and eventually buried by the FBI. And those he might have gone on to attack.The hearing, this episode, begins quickly and starts with some opening statements from the four Gymnasts, superstars, and my new heroes. I don’t need to write explanations of their grueling testimony, but I assure you, These statements, of the ordeal are gut wrenching and heart breaking. Simone Biles - “They knew I had been abused”McKayla Maroney - “FBI lies about what I said”Maggie Nichols - “Keep quiet and do nothing”Aly Raisman - “Stopping him should have been a priority”I urge you to listen to this episode. It is important that we spread light on their bravery for future amateur athletes, but for children and vulnerable people every where. Prisoner Nasser deserves nothing written about him from my perspective, but we should in a meaningful way. On future episodes discuss and inform more broadly, the predators process. Their way of speaking light was brave ass testimony. It will be our role at Public Access America to provide information that hopefully will help parents see warning signs, in their child as well as the trusted adults those children are around. As well to those predators and predators in waiting. To let them know. The urges are real but the actions you are contemplating are not! The answer for the thoughts you’re having isn’t to destroy precious souls, but to seek help from professionals. We will provide resources for you as well. I think this is the job of the more main stream media, but once the shine is off of this story, they will be on to something more dramatic. While we will incorporate this into our every day lives. Twitter @PublicAccessPodhttps://twitter.com/PublicAccessPodinstagram @PublicAccessAmericahttps://www.instagram.com/publicaccessamericaApple https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/public-access-america/id1118000423?i=1000515737702Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/589U8kzclmVd3Ny3Dyh3t2?si=q5AWhmzSRX23_AL4mI8JpgStitcherhttps://www.stitcher.com/show/public-access-americaRadioPublichttps://radiopublic.com/public-access-america-WPD3XRAmazonMusichttps://music.amazon.com/podcasts/36eeac72-ca73-46c1-8213-64cbd4cc6014/Public-Access-AmericaRedCirclehttps://redcircle.com/shows/public-access-americaAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
