51% - The Women's Perspective

In America, women make up more than half the population.  Worldwide, women are expected to outnumber men within the next fifty years.  And every issue we face is one that effects us all.

Whether it’s the environment, health, our children, politics or the arts, there’s a women’s perspective, and 51% is a show dedicated to that viewpoint. 

Host Susan Barnett talks to experts in their field for a wide-ranging, entertaining discussion of issues that not only fall into the traditional ‘women’s issues’ category, but topics that concern us all as human beings and citizens of the global community.

 

51%- The Women’s Perspective.  It’s not just for women.
2009 Communicator Award:  Best Issues Program

Tune to 51% weekly throughout the U. S. on public and community radio stations, some ABC Radio Network stations, Armed Forces Radio stations around the world and on the Internet.
