Dave Courchene's dream conveys a Grandfather's urgent message: profound Earth changes are imminent. Humanity must prepare for a simple, spiritual life, detached from technology that harms the land. He observes current global conditions reflect an unsustainable path of selfishness and greed, necessitating a fundamental shift towards kindness, compassion, and sharing for a "New Life."

Indigenous peoples, faithful to original instructions of love and care for Earth, are called to lead this transformation. Their wisdom centers on the Seven Sacred Laws—Respect, Love, Courage, Honesty, Wisdom, Humility, and Truth—each exemplified by an animal. Living these laws on Turtle Island is vital for peace, freedom, and universal alignment, offering a vision of hope for humanity.

The U.S. Supreme Court has become a powerful, unelected policymaker, profoundly shaping American life through decisions on voting rights, healthcare, and more. A conservative majority ensures its continued influence.

Ian Millhiser, Vox's Supreme Court correspondent and author of *The Agenda*, will discuss the Court's future. He explores how it could reshape America, undermining democracy by impacting voting rights, the administrative state, church/state separation, and issues like abortion and affirmative action.

Join Millhiser and Melissa Murray for this crucial conversation, Wednesday, April 7, at 12:00 PM PDT. Details: commonwealthclub.org/covid19support. Follow Ian Millhiser on Twitter @imillhiser.

Host Jeff Corwin celebrates the Endangered Species Act (ESA), landmark 1973 legislation protecting vulnerable wildlife and ecosystems. The bald eagle, once near extinction, exemplifies the ESA's success, having recovered and now thriving across the U.S.

The ESA also protects sea turtles, with Florida's beaches being globally vital nesting sites. Conservation efforts, like Boca Raton's beachfront parks, are crucial. While only 1 in 10,000 hatchlings survive to adulthood, protecting their habitat allows these keystone species to flourish. All six sea turtle species nesting in America are protected by the ESA.
