As we prepare our fifth season of Exile, we're looking back at our favorite episodes from seasons 1-4. Each re-release brings back a unique, fascinating, and often heart-wrenching story from the Leo Baeck Institute Archives. Leo Fuks is a born performer. So when, in 1936, a vaudeville impresario shows up to recruit him, 10-year-old Leo is more than happy to join his troupe, and his parents reluctantly agree. As Leo, now known as Jackie Gerlich, travels the world and dips his toes into Hollywood, his family is left behind to grapple with the terror of rising antisemitism in Vienna. After years without contact, Leo's mother is shocked to see her son dancing on screen in The Wizard of Oz—and she resolves to do everything she can to get her son back.  Learn more at www.lbi.org/gerlich.

Mike Wallace interviews Ayn Rand and Mickey Spillane on their reasons for becoming authors, their view of what makes a hero, and why, despite being viciously denounced by critics, they both maintain a large popular appeal. Hear Ayn Rand's straight-to-the-point analysis of her own and Mickey Spillane's work in this 1961 interview. Audio licensed courtesy of The Bentley Historical Library, University of Michigan.

March 25, 1965. The US is bombing North Vietnam. On the University of Michigan's campus, students and professors are gathered for a first-of-its kind protest event. They're holding a “teach-in,” staying up all night to discuss what's going on in Vietnam. How did the classroom become a powerful tool for protest? And what impact did this “teach-in” have in shaping the antiwar movement on college campuses—and around the world?Special thanks to our guests: Zelda Gamson, Alan Haber, Susan Harding, Richard Mann, Stan Nadel, Gayl Ness, Jack Rothman, Howard Wachtel, and Michael Zweig.

Since 9/11, US governmental agencies have poured millions of dollars into spying on Arabs, Muslims and Arab Americans. Their surveillance has changed countless lives as ordinary citizens all over the country were interrogated, arrested or had their homes raided. But this didn't start in 2001. Invasive - and even illegal - surveillance programmes against Arabs and Arab Americans have a long history in the US, going all the way back to the 1970s, with a program code-named Operation Boulder. But it wasn't until a lawyer named Abdeen Jabara took his own government to court that the true size and scale of the programme was revealed. This episode was produced by Suzanne Gaber and Will Thomson, and edited by Dana Ballout and Alex Atack. Fact checking by Deena Sabry. Additional support from Nadeen Shaker and Zeina Dowidar. Sound design and mixing by Paul Alouf.

In our last episode of the 2020 season, we spend some some time with Greg Kinney. Who is Greg Kinney you ask? Well, he's the keeper of the keys to the incredible vault of University of Michigan Football history at the Bentley Historical Library in Ann Arbor. With such a rich and legendary tradition at Michigan, Kinney has researched and archived some amazing documents from over a century ago. It brings to life the likes of Yost, Crisler, Kipke, Oosterbaan, Schembechler and more. These records weren't exactly easy to discover given the Athletic Departments ever decreasing capacity to store these treasures and the lack of personnel to organize them. Enter Greg Kinney and his staff, who even searched old coal bins to find some artifacts that were museum worthy. In addition, Greg has gone digital, and this past year added 20 years of the old "Michigan Replay" show with Bo Schembechler, Gary Moeller, Loyd Carr and yours truly to the list of items you can experience as part of the Bentley Library collection. Take a walk down memory lane with the archivist of all things Michigan Athletics in this Conversation with...Greg Kinney

ABOUT THIS EPISODE Within Black communities, "respectability politics" is a term often used to describe efforts at racial uplift that involve efforts at self-regulation in the service of disproving negative racial stereotypes. It includes ensuring that one's conduct is beyond reproach, and that one's standards of dress meet certain high standards (often those of upper-middle class White society). The term also refers to demands that Black Americans engage in such self-regulation. Black figures such as Charles Barkley and Bill Cosby have famously (and infamously) made such demands. One's consumption choices--ranging from clothing to housing--can constitute a domain in which respectability politics plays out. And University of South Carolina marketing professor David Crockett has studied exactly that topic. We discuss respectability politics, consumption, and more in this episode.

Ted Kaczynski had been a boy genius. Then he became the Unabomber. After years of searching for him, the FBI finally caught him in his remote Montana cabin, along with thousands of pages of his writing. Those pages revealed Kaczynski's hatred towards a field of psychology called "behaviorism," the key to the link between him and James McConnell. This is part two of our three-part series.

Henry Ford's Dearborn Independent published a series of anti-Semitic articles in the 1920s. They gained wide traction, were translated into several languages and gathered in a four-volume series, The International Jew. Nearly 100 years later, The Dearborn Historian, an obscure quarterly publication, released a story examining this anti-Semitic propaganda. Dearborn's mayor mothballed the issue, and Historian's editor Bill McGraw was informed that his services were no longer needed. In this episode of The Detroit History Podcast, we talk with McGraw, University of Michigan-Dearborn Professor Ron Stockton, and Mike Smith, principal archivist at the University of Michigan's Bentley Historical Library and an archivist with Detroit's Jewish News, about Henry Ford's anti-Semitism and the controversy surrounding The Dearborn Historian's issue.
