On this edition of Independent Sources, we explore the issue of homelessness among female veterans. Why are these numbers increasing and what is being done to help these women? We talk about whey some magazine publishers are overlooking a viable market, namely young black women. Then, we see how more productions for and about people of color are making it to Broadway.
