Year Of The Rabbit, Sundance Controvesy, & More
Celebration turned into tragedy at a Lunar New Year celebration in California over the weekend.
In Florida, the Department of Education has rejected an advanced placement course covering African American Studies.
Overseas, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is stepping down, citing the need for a better work-life balance. At only 37, Ardern became the world's youngest female leader in 2017.
Back in the states, The Sundance Film Festival was host to some off-screen drama over accessibility. And in other movie news, James Cameron is a boss at the box office. Avatar: The Way of Water, topped $2 billion at the box office this weekend - becoming just the sixth movie in history to reach the milestone. (He has two other films in the top 6!)
In sports, the Bills' season is officially over, but they are still winners, with Damar Hamlin making miraculous steps in his recovery and being able to appear at the playoff game to support his teammates.
And Good News for reproductive health if you live in New York.

A King's Legacy, Gas Stove Chaos, ChatGPT Crackdown, Biden's Docs, And A Super Bowl Hero
"On this week's episode of 'Give Our Take,' we recognize MLK Day as a day of service and speak about The Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, commonly known as The King Center, founded by Coretta Scott King.
We also dive into the controversy surrounding ChatGPT: helpful tool? Or a new way to plagiarize? Plus, what one student invented as a way to detect whether text is A.I.-written.
A new study from the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that 12.7% of childhood asthma in the US is attributable to gas stove use, and while we are certainly keeping our eye on this... it has become the most clickbait-y headline of the week.
The Biden administration is in hot water - it looks like classified documents have been found from his VP days, and the President’s personal attorneys are cooperating with the Archives and the Department of Justice.
Republicans are using the incident to draw parallels to the FBI's raid of Mar-a-Lago, where they found more than 300 classified documents 45 brought to his beach house.
Finally, in your Good News Corner: An update on the Buffalo hero who saved neighbors during the storm - he's going to the Super Bowl!
