Hawaii’s Gender Wage Gap: Rachel Lyons
It’s not as bad as in some other states, but that’s small comfort to any woman in Hawaii earning less than a man in a comparable position.

We called Rachel Lyons at the National Partnership for Women & Families. She’s the senior government affairs manager for workplace programs

La Pietra fantasy play, "Born To Be Wild": Lisa Boggis

What would animals say, if they could speak to us? We know they have personalities of their own but what would language add to the mix?

It’s now in its tenth year, and it’s coming to Maui this weekend
