World News of the Week (WNW) with Maya and Dad
Ten year old Maya and her dad, Jeremy, discuss major news events each week, hoping to inspire other families to discuss the big issues at their dinner tables, on their way to school or, frankly, whenever it works in their busy family lives.
We examine a major event, ask questions of each other and hope to find some answers... and raise more questions!

This week, after much criticized testimony before Congress, University of Pennsylvania President, Elizabeth Magill, was forced to resign. Was this fair? Right? Should it have happened sooner... or not at all? As President, Magill had to walk a fine line between allowing free speech on campus and protecting Jewish students from hate speech. Other President's survived their testimony, but Magill made one big mistake...which we discuss on this week's WNW with Maya and Dad.
