More younger women are being diagnosed with breast cancer, but better treatments and early detection have helped increase survival rates. During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Racquel Williams checks in on where we are in the fight to end breast cancer with Dr. Ana Maria Lopez, an oncologist at Fox Chase Cancer Center, and Lynne Alston, a breast cancer survivor, advocate with the Hugs for Hope Foundation, and founder of the HUGS Around America Foundation. We discuss life experiences in the “pink sister circle”, how to know your body, and when to get screened.
Then, on Shara in the City, Mural Arts is celebrating some of the original graffiti artists in Philadelphia who helped spread the street art movement. Shara Dae Howard checks out their “Construction of Style” exhibition, learns some street art history, and talks with the graffiti OGs.
