This week on Under the Radar with Callie Crossley:

For the first time in this country’s history, LGBTQ candidates are on the ballot in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Plus, The Pennsylvania ACLU has filed a federal complaint against a school district in the state, alleging it discriminates against trans and non-binary students. And 20 states across the country have pledged to offer a legal shield against anti-LGBTQ legislation. A move some are referring to as the “rainbow wall.”

And for our November pick for Bookmarked: Author Stacy Schiff joins Under the Radar to discuss her newest book, 'The Revolutionary.' She gives a very detailed history of the oft-overlooked founding father, Samuel Adams, and the mark he left on his young country.
