Program Title: Endeavours - exposing rape in the military
Description: Shawn Johnson is a former Olympic gymnast and three-time medalist (two silver, one gold) at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. After her triumphs, she won season eight of Dancing With The Stars. In 2010, she tore her ACL while skiing. Although she attempted a comeback, she officially announced her retirement last month due to recurring injury problems related to her knee. Later in June, she released her memoir "Winning Balance", predominantly about her post-Olympic life.
Susan L. Burke is an attorney, based out of the D.C. area, who is prominently featured in the new documentary "The Invisible War" which chronicles soldiers who have sexually assaulted in the military. Baker talks about the effect that the film has had on public policy.
Serena Ryder is a Juno Award-winning singer-songwriter originally from Toronto. Her first album, Falling Out, was released when she just 16. Her latest album, Serena Ryder & The Beauties, was released exclusively on vinyl last year. She also has a new live album out as well.
