This thrift store in</sub> _Chalmette _{is much more than it seems.} _{The shortage of highly qualified} _teachers _{and classrooms,} _{that hasn't changed.} _{The strain} _{that could make the school year} _{so challenging.} _{I couldn't personally understand} _{how this guide got me} <sub>so drawn in.

And.</sub> _{Part two of our.} _{Special report on online} _scammers. _{Hi, everyone.} _{I'm Andre Morrow crossing} _{serious out today} _{but as two major reports} _{in this broadcast.} _{The hottest, most humid} _{part of the summer} _{has jacked power bills} _{even higher.} _{And it appears that $150} _{credit from energy} _{isn't going to everybody} _{who is eligible.} _{Why, you ask?} _Well, _{the money set aside by energy} _{and the United Way} _{is expected to run out.} _{Energy says 17,000} _customers _{applied in the first 8 hours} _{on Wednesday,} _{overwhelming things.} _{So they shut down} _{the application process.} _{Now, keep in mind, energy} _serves _{many more customers than that} _{in the southeast region,} _{which includes} _{Orleans, Jefferson} _{and surrounding parishes.} _{Energy says if you did apply,} _{you are not guaranteed} _{to get the credit.} _{So keep that in mind.} _{Also today, Mayor} _{Adrian Perkins of Shreveport} _{has learned} _{that the Supreme Court} _{of the state} _{has ruled in his favor} _{and so he can run for reelection} _{in that race for mayor} _{of Shreveport.} _{Senator and Dr.} _{Bill Cassidy joins us in studio} _{and the aftermath} _{of Hurricane Katrina.} _{You may not remember} _{he led a group of health} _{care volunteers} _{into an abandoned Kmart.} _{They made it a makeshift} _{emergency facility} _{for people who needed care} _{in the aftermath of Katrina.} _{So, Bill Cassidy, I asked you} _{if American politics} _{was a patient} _{and walked into your office} _{right now.} _{What would be your diagnosis} _{and what would be} _{your recommendation?} _{Take a deep breath.} _{We're all suffering from} _{a little bit of anxiety,} _{a little bit of anxiety} _{about what is out there.} _{Our country is an incredibly} _{great country} _{and the greatness of it} _{comes from the American people.} _{So we're so fixated} _{on Washington,} _{but the greatness of our country} _{comes from within.} _{So take a deep breath,} _{calm down.} _{Maybe take a Valium.} _{That would be the} _{prescription I read} _{this week.} _{And and throughout} _{good indications of you} _{reaching across the aisle} _{to make things happen} _{where they need to happen.} _{The Great Mississippi} _{River Coalition,} _{the navigation project,} _{was heralded this week.} <sub>And you were there?

Yeah.

So.</sub> _{So sometimes folks fuss because} _{you work with other people.} _{But if you're going} _{to do something for your state,} _{you can't help but notice} _{that Democrats control} _{the presidency.} _{The White House excuse me,} _{the White House, the Senate} _{and the House.} _{So if you're going to do} _something, _{you've got to work} _{with other people.} _{I was part of the bipartisan} _{infrastructure bill,} _{which, among other things,} _{has money} _{going to Shreveport right} _{now, money} _{going to Ascension Parish.} _{You just described the deepening} _{of the Mississippi River} _Channel. _Right. _{All these things} _{are going to help our state.} _{It is going to move} _{our state, not just catching up} _{with Texas in 2022,} _{but prepare our state for 2050} _{so that our children} _{and our grandchildren} _{have a reason to stay here} _{and not move away.} _{You look at insurance,} _{post-hurricane recovery.} _{Grand Isle having buildings} _{that are not} _{they can't afford the insurance} _{for when insurance} _{is some of those buildings.} _{Plus, people are still} _{struggling with building back} _{after hurricanes} _{of the past year} _{and two years.} _{What is your advice?} _{Is there anything} _{that can be done} _{to help people continuously?} _Absolutely. _{That was all part} _{of the bipartisan} _{infrastructure bill} _{and the bipartisan} _{infrastructure bill.} _{There are billions of dollars} _{to help mitigate flood risk,} _{prioritizing areas} _{of our country} _{that flooded in the last} _{ten years.} _{There's $3 billion} _{for coastal restoration.} _Prioritizing _{areas of our country hit} _{by natural disasters} _{in the last six years.} _{Now, it's not an earmark,} _{but you couldn't better} _{say Louisiana} _{then, prioritizing} _{those areas hit} _{by natural disasters} _{in the last six years.} _{Our state just got, I think} _{it's $120 million} _{out of the bipartisan} _{infrastructure bill in order} _{to strengthen infrastructure,} _{which is coastal} _{and which is at risk} _{from natural disasters.} _{Now that bipartisan} _{infrastructure bill,} _{I could keep going.} _Yeah. _{Prepares us for 2050,} _{and it makes our place} _{more secure.} _{It'll make us more prosperous} _{and that's} _{why people will stay.} _{Sir, it's August.} _{You're going around the state} _{a lot} _{this month talking to people.} _{What is the feedback} _{you're getting?} _{What are you hearing?} _{Biggest concerns.} _{Yeah, people want to know.} _{People are concerned} _{about inflation.} _{They're really concerned} _{about inflation.} _{If you go to the bigger cities,} _{they're concerned about crime.} _{And there's always} _{this kind of issue of what's} _{going on at the border,} _{because they have a sense} _{that, you know,} _{if we can't protect our border,} _{we can't take} _{care of our country.} _{And so} _{that's kind of,} _{you know, pocketbook.} _{On the other hand,} _{they also notice that} _{we are dipping} _{in the Mississippi River.} _{I work in the port system.} _{I'm a farmer.} _{And all of that} _{is going to help me} _{in some way.} _{The Internet and the bipartisan} _{infrastructure bill,} _{there was about $60 billion.} _{I think I remember to make sure} _{that every American} _{has access to affordable,} _{high speed Internet.} _Astonishing _{that many don't in Louisiana.} _{So an evangelist parish,} _{evangelist parish, Jennifer} _{Vidrine is the mayor of plot.} _{And she says that} _{the evangelist Parish} _{was third worst in the country} _{in terms of a parish or county,} _{in terms} _{of their Internet access.} _{And now they're getting} _{a federal grant} _{that's going to be used} _{to build out their Internet.} _{They're going to go, as she puts} _{it, from worst to first.} _Fantastic. _{Now, think about what that means} _{for Evangelist Parish.} _{My wife says that} _{a woman won't move to a place} _{unless there's a good school,} _{a good hospital,} _{a good grocery store.} _{And she has access to high speed} _Internet. _Okay. _{She wants her child} _{to get telehealth} _{if her child needs telehealth.} _{She wants her husband} _{to be able to zoom to work.} _{She wants to watch Netflix} _{on Saturday night.} _{And she also} _{may be zooming to work right now} _{since a} _{wife tells you where to live.} _{That means Evangelist Parish} _{has the ability to begin to grow} _{once more.} _{Well, it's good to see always.} _{And Louisiana} _{is lucky} _{to have you go around the state} _{listening to concerns} _{and taking care of everybody.} _Right. _{Trying to.} _{That's what it's all about.} _{I am.} _{I have the privilege} _{of representing} _{the great state of Louisiana,} _{and I'm going to try} _{and represent everyone} _{as well as I can.} _{All right, Bill, thank you.} _{Thank you, Andrew.} _{The pandemic} _{has accelerated a 50 year} _{problem in the making.} _{Fewer and fewer teachers.} _{Cara Saint Cyr met} _{with Kimberly Eckert,} _{an educator} _{working to close this alarming} _{employment gap.} _{Now a look into the causes} _{and potential solutions.} _{When did you get into teaching?} _{Oh, well,} _{I started teaching in 2008,} _{but I took the long way around.} _{I was actually in social work} _{before I was a teacher.} _{Yes, I went to law school before} _{I was a teacher.} _{So it took it took a while.} _{But once I got there,} _{it was a perfect fit.} _{And I make sort of jokes} _{now that I've never done} _{more social work} _{in my entire life.} _{And I felt that from first day} _{on the job.} <sub>Wow.

Okay.</sub> _{So so you've been teaching} _{for a while?} <sub>Yes.

Yes, I have.</sub> _{So what's it been like,} _{I guess, going} _{from starting in 2008} _{to right now?} _{It's incredible.} _{And honestly, like the students} _{make it incredible.} _{And the fact that I'm better} _{at my job every year} _makes _{it more and more incredible.} _{A lot of the needs and a lot} _{of the challenges that we see} _{now, they're not new.} _Whenever _{you say needs and challenges} _{that haven't changed,} _{what are you talking about?} _{So some students need teachers.} _{Students need great teachers} _{that are effective every day,} _{intentionally,} _{every single day.} _{So we know that that's} _{never going} _{to change.} _{The fact that we know} _{that certain schools or certain} _{areas are under-resourced.} _{That has not changed.} _{We know that sometimes} _{the gaps that are just} _{sort of created by where} _{students are in society,} _{those have not changed.} _{And right down to teacher} _{shortage, the shortage} _{of highly qualified} _{teachers in classrooms,} _{that hasn't changed.} _{And a lot of people are just now} _talking _{about the teacher shortage} _{because of,} _{I think, the pandemic} _{and everything that's} _{been unfolding afterwards.} _{But when did this issue start?} _{So teacher shortage,} _{especially in high need areas} _{that we just talked about.} _{So special education STEM.} _{And again, in rural} _{areas, in urban areas,} _{there's there's not been a time} _{in my lifetime that} _{that has not been the case.} _{I think sometimes it's blurry} _{because people may} _{may have their students} _{in a space} _{where they were not touched} _{by the shortage.} _{But there are many areas,} _{obviously, across the state} _{and across the country that have} _{that have never really seen} _{a time} _{where we've had enough,} _{where there's been enough} _{highly qualified teachers} _{to go around.} _{I think in the case of COVID} _{and the mass exit of teachers} _{from the profession,} _{in the aftermath of that} _{and definitely the climate} _{that we are seeing now,} _{we're seeing} _{that at even greater rates} _{because it's just dwindling.} _{But honestly, it's been decades.} _{If you talk to,} _{you know, teacher prep,} _{they'll tell you} _{their enrollment in programs} _{has been dipping} _{for decades as well.} _{Why is this happening right now?} _Yeah. _{So the diminished interest} _{in teaching again,} _{it's been going on for decades} _{and some of the issues} _{we can kind of point to} _{that are very obvious.} _{Like one,} _{I think pre-K} _{did a poll in 2018} _{and it was released} _{and it talked about how} _{that was the first year} _{that over 54% of parents} _{were actively} _{discouraging their children} _{from being teachers.} _{2019, which again,} _{both of these polls came out} _{before COVID.} _{That was the year} _{that the PDK poll noted} _{that teachers} _{were actively} _{discouraging students} _{from becoming teachers.} _{So that's just} _{sort of anecdotal.} _{If you talk to students} _{who are incredibly talented} _{and ask them their views} _{on being a teacher,} _{they've probably been told at} _{least once, Don't be a teacher.} _{You're wasting your talents.} _{You're too good to be a teacher.} _{So some of that is} _{very obviously} _{we have been actively} _{discouraging people} _{from entering the profession} _{or filtering them} _{into other fields} _{that don't have nearly} _{the demand as we do in teaching.} _{How does that affect} _{children, though?} _{If we don't have} _{as many teachers} _{and people are being discouraged} _{to be teachers, and} _{where does that leave them?} _{It's it leaves them.} _{It leaves them} _{without an education,} _{without a consistent} _{means to understand} _{the needs that the world has} _{and the understanding} _{that they are} _{the solutions to the problems.} _{And I think if you don't have} _{a consistent,} _{experienced teacher} _{who has the skills} _{and the knowledge} _{to help children} _{reach their potential} _{and become aware} _{of the problems and become aware} _{of the opportunities, then we're} _{missing out on generations.} _{I think of students} _{who will never understand} _{how much we needed them} _{to step up} _{and step into the light} _{and become a part of the world.} _{Where do we go from here?} _{What are the solutions?} _{So just understanding that} _{that we would have more teachers} _{if we wouldn't} _{have as many barriers} _{to people accessing} _{being able to step up to that.} _{We've taken some strides} _{in Louisiana with that} _{by eliminating like Praxis} _{one praxis core,} _{because that's a direct} _{result of your K-12 education.} _{If you have trouble passing} _{through this} _{basic thing, this basic test.} _{That's a reflection on} _{what did we do to teach you,} _{to get you ready for that.} _{And so I think we started} _{to realize it was a double tax.} _{Like, you can't be a} _{part of the solution} _{because there's this test here} _{that bars} _{you from entering the game.} _{So I think the more} _{we start to look at that,} _{there are way more people} _{who I think} _{would be amazing teachers.} _{But we also have forces} _{that are sort of} _{making it} _{very difficult for that.} _{And so I think that a} _{mixture of it recruiting,} _{where we are understanding} _{just how difficult} _{it is to be a great teacher,} _{like being honest about that} _{and purposely seeking} _{the best and the brightest,} _{but eliminating} _{a lifetime of debt} _{to invite them} _{in and then to support them} _{and to encourage them} _{and to elevate them} _{once they're in.} _{I think that} _{once we start to do that} _{intentionally} _{and we} _{we keep our eye on the prize,} _{then we won't be having} _{this conversation again} _{in ten years.} _{That's my hope.} _Yeah. _{I mean, it basically} _{just sounds like meeting} _{people where they are making} _{everything accessible.} _Right. _{Which, again, a great teacher} _{does in a classroom every day.} _{So there you go.} _{All right.} _{Well, thank you so much.} _Sure. _{Thank you.} _{Transitioning out of prison} _{can be an uphill battle,} _{especially without any support} _system. _{Cara met with a former} _{inmate in Araby} _{who opened a thrift store} _{to offer opportunity and hope.} _{The United States incarcerates} _{more people} _{than any other democratic nation} _{in the world,} _{stirring controversy} _{and turmoil.} _{It is no exaggeration} _{to say that} _{many people are afraid to be} _{out on the streets at night.} _{But Louisiana} _{reigns as the capital,} _{beating out all other U.S.} _{states and countries with the} _{largest prison population.} _{But when you have a} _{community so intertwined} _{with massacres region,} _{how do they reenter society} _{when they're released?} _Flow. <sub>Hi.

Hi.</sub> _{My name is Miriam Henderson.} _{New logo.} _{Miriam Henderson, you logo} _{is the founder of Sister Heart's} _{Thrift Store.} _{Looking at her,} _{you can't tell all} _{she's been through.} _{I was in prison} _{for 12 and a half years,} _{and after I was released} _{from prison,} _{I realized that} _{I was extremely traumatized,} _{that I truly} _{did not feel like} _{I could function in society.} _{And I didn't know what to do.} _{There was no medication.} _{There was no doctor, no therapy.} _{And I didn't know what to do.} _{To be honest with you,} _{being behind bars} _{is is a fictitious type of place} _{because you have to learn} _{to survive in an extremely} _{abnormal environment.} _{There's nothing normal} _{about the environment of prison.} _{You are programed,} _{you're programed 24 hours a day.} _{And that program is mental} _{and emotional programing} _{where you are} _{desensitized, demoralized} _{and dehumanized.} _{And Miriam's} _experience _{coming out of prison is almost} _{as difficult as going in.} _{So she created this place} _{with the intent of easing} _{the transition.} _{Every item in this store} _{has been discarded.} _{It was discarded by someone} _{rejected, thrown away.} _{Someone didn't want it anymore.} _{Well, those of us} _{that have been to prison,} _{we have a relationship} _{with all of these items} _{because we, too,} _{have been rejected, discarded} _{and thrown away by society} _{and our families.} _{So that's why} _{if you look around,} _{everything is so beautiful} _{and is neat} _{and is clean, is organized.} _{Because now} _{we have learned how to take what} _{we call society's trash} _{and convert it into treasures.} _{I use the concept of a thrift} _store _{to decarceration.} _{The dictionary} _{defines decarceration} _{as the practice or policy} _{of reducing the number} _{of people subject} _{to incarceration.} _{But Merriam defines it} _{as a more holistic approach} _{to her.} _{It's a way of recalibrating} _{the brain} _{to regain independence,} _{which she provides} _{by letting recently} _{incarcerated people work} _{at the store.} _{This is a program here} _{we focus on mental} _{and emotional.} _{That's our focus.} _{They need to focus on} _{like, for example, color coding.} _{You know,} _{these are all match colors.} _{So let's put these colors} _together. _{That's analytical.} _{Then you strategically say,} _okay, _{let's put all the skirts here.} _{These are the pants.} _{So you have to use} _{your brain in ways} _{that we were never allow} _{to use our brains in prison.} _{This is decarceration} _{because we have to use our brain} _{to enhance our lives,} _{something that we're not allowed} _{to do in prison.} _{Merriam Store} _{has employed over 200} _{formerly incarcerated people} _{and helped them} _{get back on their feet.} _{Anthony Taylor} _{is just one of them.} _{Why ended up here?} _{Because I was homeless} _{on the street.} _{I was living in downtown} _{New Orleans and sleeping} _{on a piece of cardboard} _{along the river.} _{And I met a lady one day} _{who I helped out and} _{did some volunteer work for her,} _{and she invited me} _{to come and meet Miss Marion.} _{And on that day,} _{I walked} _{in the store} _{and I met this Marieme,} _{and she told me a little bit} _{about the program.} _{Milton McCoy} _{is the most recent employee.} _{He's been out of prison} _{for two weeks.} _{I didn't wasn't intending on} _{looking for them,} _{but I was actually trying} _{to sign up for food} _{stamps on my phone.} _{And I was asked about buying} _{or renting a house} _{and I said, yeah.} _{And I got, uh,} _{I got a call from a broker} _{and town was with referral.} _{Referral to a real estate agent.} _{And I explained my situation} _{to the real estate agent} _{and she gave me Ms..} _{Miriam's number.} _{The sister arts program} _{also offers bank account} _{support, driver's license} _{support and transportation} _things. _{People on the outside may take} _{for granted.} _{But two people} _{coming back into society,} _{it's taking their freedom back.} <sub>Or in Miriam's case.

It's</sub> _{this is decarceration.} _{And decarceration is reversing} _{the trauma of incarceration.} _{And so at everything,} _{everything that we do, we are} _{in a constant} _{state of decarceration.} _{When I am developing} _{relationships, I'm} _{in a state of decarceration} _{because I have to create.} _{When when situations} _{at all} _times. _{You can donate to Sister Heart's} _{thrift store} _{by dropping off your items} _{at their location} _{on West Judd's} _{Perez Drive.} _{We showed you} _{some of the ugly sides} _{of social media} _{and dating sites in part} _{one of our special report} _{about online scammers.} _{Well, tonight, there's more.} _{How scammers are groomed} _{and taught} _{how to rip people off.} _{But there are now some websites} _offering _{tons of information} _{that you need to know,} _{especially if you want} _{to wade the waters} _{of online dating.} _{When I first Googled my name} _{and dating scams,} _{I learned how extensive it was.} _{My pictures} _{used with a fake profile} _{and another name.} _{This was after} _{I began getting emails} _{from women} _{who had already been burned} _{from people using my pictures.} _{Some of the women} _{had already given away} _{thousands of dollars.} _{After our first report} _{on these scams aired.} _{I got several more emails.} _{This woman tells of a six} _{month communication} _{with someone using my photos.} _{She gave him $5,000} _{before she realized} _{what was happening.} _{I ended up seeing a therapist} _{after what happened to me} _{because I couldn't} _{personally understand} _{how this guy had got me} _{so drawn in and hurt me.} _{We introduced you to Anna Rowe} _{last week.} _{Her own romance scam ordeal} _{led her to develop the website} _{and blog.} _{Catch the catfish dot com.} _{It's one of the most} _{comprehensive} _{and educational websites} _{out there} _{if you're considering} _{the online dating scene.} _{Go first to her website.} _{Catch the catfish dot com.} _{They are incredibly clever} _{with their questioning} _{to talk things out of you and} <sub>to build trust.

And</sub> _{for me, unlike when} _{the police} _{who are now} _{putting educational stuff} _{out there site,} _{they don't offer up} _{any information} _{about themselves, actually,} _{whether it's it's} _{not necessarily} _{the truth about themselves,} _{but they actually tell you} _{a lot of information} _{about their persona} _{because it draws} _{you in to those sites} _{to give information back.} _{And that's} _{I mean, that's how I did it.} _{He offered he offered his} _{vulnerabilities to me first.} _{And then I felt safe to share} _{my vulnerabilities with him} _{and then how he that's} _{how he hurt me.} _{You know,} _{he he used those back to me.} _{So it's a very clever} _manipulation _{that victims gateway.} _{As you've seen} _{the scams online or extensive} _{they're even teaching sites} _{for scammers.} _{Let me repeat that.} _{There are teaching sites} _{for scammers and ORO explains.} _{The scammers that do this.} _{I, I actually how I do that} _groups _{so they are only allowed} _{to have groups on Facebook} _{and other places} _{where they train each other.} _{They ask each other advice} _{for situations} _{they find them in} _{while they're doing} <sub>this.

And</sub> _{you're saying that} _{the the scammers have groups?} _{Oh, yes.} _{If you go in type} _{in to the Facebook} _{search, for example, Yahoo!} _Updates, _{because they're known as Yahoo!} _Boys. _{So if you go and type in Yahoo!} _{Updates in to Facebook,} _{you will find multiple groups} _{and they are full of scammers.} _{And as much as we report them,} _{then they do nothing} _{to take them down.} _{But I hide in those groups} _{and that's} _{how I've educated myself} _{about them, so that} _{I've got the last} _{four blocks} _{that are on my website,} _{actually are all about them.} _{And that's how I} _{that's how I learned} _{about all the tricks} _{that they use} _{and everything else} _{that goes with it.} _{So there are multiple} _{kinds of scams} _{that I will run} _{through with the fake profiles.} _{Sometimes they're phishing} _{for personal information.} _{So over the course of the scam,} _{it might be} _{that they suggest to the victim} _{that they take out a loan.} _{The scammers will have created} _{a complete fake website} _{that looks like a bank} _{with life forms,} _{and they will send} _{in pictures of their identity,} _{their phone number,} _{their email address} _{and they input that} _{into a system} _{because they think it's} _{going to be a loan.} _{And then they take} _{that information} _{and they use it on the online} _{benefit system in America,} _{for example,} _{to create a claim} _{for unemployment benefit.} _{And I know I've read the US} _{has the lost billions} _{to look forward} _{online fraud to the benefits} _claims. _{Here's that website of anaerobe.} _{Catch the catfish scam.} _{It's packed with information,} _{articles, blogs,} _{what to do and examples} _{of what has happened} _{and still tough to understand.} _{In my case,} _{the Instagram copycats.} _{They use a version of my name} _Amoroso. _{Now, all my information,} _{my resume} _pictures, _{Instagram will take them down.} _{But as quickly as they do,} _{others pop up.} _{So still some education to go} _there. _Everyone, _{that is our show for this week.} _{Remember, you can watch anything} _{LPB any time.} _{Wherever you are} _{with our LPB PBS app,} _{you can catch LPB News} _{and Public Affairs} _{shows as well as other Louisiana} _programs _{that you've come} _{to enjoy over the years.} _{And please like us on Facebook,} _{Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok} _{for everyone here} _{at Louisiana Public} _{Broadcasting, I'm Andre Moreau.} _{And so next time,} _{that's the state we're.} _{Every day} _{I go to work for Entergy.} _{I know} _{customers are counting on me.} _{So Entergy is investing} _{millions of dollars} _{to keep the lights on} _{and installing new technology} _{to prevent outages} _{before they happen together.} _{Together, together,} _{we power life.} _{Additional support} _{provided by the Fred Bea} _{and Ruth B Zigler Foundation} _{and the Zigler Art Museum} _{located in Jennings City Hall.} _{The Museum focuses on emerging} _{Louisiana artists} _{and is an historical} _{and cultural center} _{for Southwest Louisiana} _{and the Foundation} _{for Excellence} _{in Louisiana} _{Public Broadcasting.} _{With support from viewers} _{like you.}
