Sometimes the most meaningful conversations happen when people with different perspectives choose to listen before they speak.

This week, Anthony Corona passes the microphone to someone he deeply respects, Ray Campbell, for an honest, thoughtful, and timely conversation with Gabriel Lopez Cafati about leadership.

Throughout this year, and indeed throughout nearly seven years of Sunday Edition, we have continued to create space for meaningful conversations about leadership from many different perspectives. At a time when those conversations may be more important than ever, we invite you to pull up a chair and join us.

What makes a great leader.

How do we navigate disagreements without losing our humanity.

Why do authenticity, integrity, transparency, and respect matter more than ever.

Gabriel shares his remarkable journey from studying law and becoming a corporate attorney in Honduras to coming to the United States to learn the blindness skills that would shape the next chapter of his life. It was here that he discovered the American Council of the Blind, where a second act of his leadership journey truly began. Along the way, he reflects on the mentors who helped shape him, the opportunities leadership has opened for him, how leadership itself has transformed him, and why creating opportunities for others while honoring every voice across our community remains one of the greatest responsibilities any leader can embrace.

The conversation also explores building common ground during difficult moments, preparing the next generation of leaders, and why healthy organizations depend on democratic processes, accountability, and the willingness to move forward together.

Whether you are a current leader, an aspiring leader, or simply someone who cares about the future of our community, this is a conversation that reminds us leadership is not about titles. It is about people.

Your Golden Toilet Bowl Can’t Buy Your Way Through the Pearly Gates

What happens when power, politics, and eternity collide?

In this thought provoking Sunday Edition Spotlight, Anthony Corona imagines an extraordinary conversation at the gates of Heaven as Presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump arrive together to face the same final judgment.

Through satire, humor, and spiritual reflection, the story explores themes of leadership, humility, compassion, accountability, and the consequences of the words we choose while wielding influence. At its core, this is not a political endorsement or condemnation of any individual. It is an invitation to consider what truly matters when wealth, fame, power, and public opinion are stripped away.

Can success on Earth purchase redemption? Does applause outweigh character? Can a damaged conscience still be restored?

Blending wit with moments of genuine introspection, this fictional parable reminds us that history may judge our accomplishments, but our humanity, our compassion, and the way we treat one another may ultimately matter far more.

What happens when the warning signs of history begin to feel uncomfortably familiar?

In this powerful Sunday Edition Spotlight, Anthony Corona reflects on the enduring message of Martin Niemoller’s “First They Came” and explores how fear, division, and the gradual erosion of rights have shaped generations of American political and social discourse.

Moving through the experiences of women, LGBTQIA plus people, immigrants, and the disability community, Anthony examines the ways marginalized groups are often targeted one at a time while the rest of society is encouraged to look away. Rather than focusing on any single issue, this commentary asks listeners to consider a broader question. What happens when communities remain divided while fundamental rights and human dignity are increasingly challenged?

At its heart, this is a call for coalition, solidarity, and vigilance. It is a reminder that disability rights are human rights. LGBTQIA plus rights are human rights. Women’s rights are human rights. Immigrant rights are human rights. Civil rights are human rights. When one community is weakened, every community becomes more vulnerable.

Whether you agree, disagree, or find yourself somewhere in between, this Spotlight invites thoughtful conversation about history, empathy, civic engagement, and the responsibility we all share in protecting one another.

In this thoughtful Sunday Edition audio editorial, Anthony Corona examines the recent Department of Justice memorandum on disability integration and community living, separating fact from fear while explaining why the document has sparked concern throughout the disability community.

Using the powerful metaphor of “the dumpster is burning, but the house is not. Yet,” Anthony explores what the memorandum does and does not do. He explains that it does not repeal the Americans with Disabilities Act, overturn the Supreme Court’s Olmstead decision or create new authority to force disabled Americans into institutions. Instead, he argues that the greater concern lies in the federal government’s changing approach to enforcing disability rights and supporting community based living.

The conversation looks beyond alarming social media claims to examine the long term implications for Medicaid funded supports, home and community based services, personal care attendants, transportation, independent living and the policies that help millions of disabled Americans remain active members of their communities.

Rather than encouraging panic, Anthony calls for informed advocacy rooted in facts, careful analysis and coalition building. He urges disability advocates and organizations to educate themselves, engage with policymakers and prepare for the policy debates that may shape disability rights in the years ahead.

This episode marks the beginning of a continuing series exploring disability policy, accessibility and independent living, with future conversations focusing on paratransit, home health services, Medicaid waivers and other critical supports that help disabled Americans live independently.

Knowledge is our greatest advocacy tool. Facts are our strongest foundation. Community is our greatest strength.
