Professor French Tells What Gen Z Can Teach All of Us!   What happens when one of America's top legal minds steps back into the classroom—only to be schooled by Gen Z? New York Times columnist and Good Faith contributor David French joins Curtis Chang to reflect on what a year of teaching college students taught him about faith, over-parenting, and the future of American democracy. Together, they explore whether this rising generation is rejecting political tribalism in favor of ethical engagement—or simply afraid to speak up in polarized times. Could Gen Z's quiet shift reshape our fractured public square?   Send written questions or voice memos for “Ask Curtis” episodes to: askcurtis@redeemingbabel.org Send Campfire Stories to: info@redeemingbabel.org   Resources mentioned in this episode: Lipscomb University's College of Leadership & Public Service Supreme Court case: Marbury v.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we explore the latest legal bombshell dropped by the Supreme Court. With an unanimous ruling, the Court determined that states do not have the power to enforce section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which deals with the eligibility of federal candidates. Join us as Jessica dissects the details and disagreements within the Court's opinion and explores its potential impact on future elections and congressional power.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:1️⃣ The Supreme Court Ruling: The Colorado Supreme Court's decision was overturned unanimously by the Supreme Court, which held that the state exceeded its authority in determining a federal candidate's eligibility under a specific constitutional amendment.2️⃣ Implementation and Implications of Section 3: The court's opinion was delivered per curiam, representing the entire bench, with the conservative and liberal justices offering differing perspectives on how Section 3 of the 14th Amendment can be enforced.3️⃣ Disagreement Between Conservative and Liberal Justices: The ruling highlights the fracture lines within the court, with disagreement on the extent to which Congress can exclude an individual from holding office based on Section 3.Follow Our Host:On Threads: @LevinsonJessica

Are concepts of race and racism so embedded in our culture, that kids as young as 3 have a racial identity? How do environment and family dynamics impact a child's perceived sense of self? These were just some of the questions a husband-and-wife team of psychologists asked during their groundbreaking investigation of the racial formation of young Black children. During the 1940s, Kenneth and Mamie Clark recorded the negative impacts of segregation through a series of studies and experiments which came to be known as the “Doll Tests.” A student would choose between a Black doll and a White one when asked a series of questions, like “Which doll is the good doll?” or “which doll is the pretty doll?” Most Black children chose White dolls, and to the dismay of the Clarks, some students were upset and felt devastated after having to identify with the doll they had previously labeled as bad or ugly.   I SEE U host Eddie Robinson candidly chats with acclaimed author, Tim Spofford, about his latest book, What the Children Told Us: The Untold Story of the Famous “Doll Test” and the Black Psychologists Who Changed the World. Spofford, who grew up in an all-white mill town in upstate New York, shares his thoughts on why he felt the need to tell the full story of this pioneering couple – whose research, scholarship and activism played a critical role in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case, which declared the infamous “separate but equal” doctrine unconstitutional. He also offers up insight on how today's generation of children would perform if given the same doll tests from back in the day.

Betty Ann Kilby and her family were terrorized when they defied their local school board and the governor of Virginia to desegregate the only high school in their county in 1959. And yet, nearly 50 years later, in 2007, she was willing to talk to a descendant of a family who had once enslaved her ancestors. It was a defining move reminiscent of a well-known quote in Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King's ‘I Have a Dream' speech of 1963. The passage read in part: "I have a dream that one day... the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood." Join us as two courageous women take a seat at the I SEE U table of sisterhood and chat unguarded with Host Eddie Robinson about the power of forgiveness, acceptance and reconciliation. "Wit, Wills and Walls" author, Dr. Betty Kilby Fisher Baldwin, reveals to I SEE U surprising details never-before-told of her personal life; and Phoebe Kilby, co-author of the book, "Cousins," candidly shares her own insight into attitudes toward reparations and how White Americans whose families owned slaves grapple with stories and narratives of descendants who are now starting to trace their hidden histories linked to some form of enslavement.

In the 1940's, psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark conducted a series of experiments where they had identical dolls, different only in color, and asked black children which color of doll they preferred.  They found that two-thirds of the children preferred the white doll to one of their own race. The Clarks concluded that the racism found in American institutions affects the sense of self in African American children. Their findings proved to be instrumental in the famous Supreme Court Brown v. Board of Education decision to remove racial segregation in American schools. The story of the doll test and the Clarks is detailed in the new book "What the Children Told Us".  We talk with the author who gives us more insight on this time in history and what other doll tests have shown in later years.

Which school a child attends and with who has an enormous effect on their life trajectory. For decades, the question of which kids get access to which schools has been a central point of conflict in American democratic politics. The de-segregation efforts after Brown have, in the last few decades largely reversed and schools are growing more and more racially segregated. Making the intentional choice to swim against this tide is the subject of “Learning in Public: Lessons for a Racially Divided America from My Daughter's School.” Author Courtney Martin joins WITHpod to discuss writing the memoir and her journey moving from Brooklyn to enrolling her daughter in a local school down the street from her home in an Oakland co-housing community. She also talks about navigating school choice, why public schools are the “foundation of our fragile democracy,” and why these decisions provide a powerful starting point for creating social change and the kind of multi-racial democracy we deserve to have.

Joe Madison and his listeners join House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer to call for the removal of symbols of hate from the United States Capitol and to honor Justice Thurgood Marshall instead.

Part one of our first two-part special is based on the following UNHINGED tweet from Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene. MTG is worse than a ‘Thorn in the USA,' she is a fungus among us, an exemplary model of our domestic white supremacists and the face of CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM spreading across the globe (and far more dangerous than a pandemic.) “I am being attacked by the godless left because I said I'm a proud Christian Nationalist. These evil people are even calling me a Nazi because I proudly love my country and my God. The left has shown us exactly who they are. They hate America, they hate God, and they hate us.” ~ @RepMTGOn this episode, Midge celebrates (and we poke) her fellow deplorables: Rep.

The biggest problem with the whole Roe v Wade is that nobody – on either side – is really considering the underlying and ancillary issues that we are headed both from and into. I know… that sounds non-sensual and irrational. There are always unintended(?) consequences of every ruling. Things that should have been obvious, but were ignored for the “greater good…” But I want you to consider a couple of things: First, there are laws that prevent the government from monitoring your cell phone for location information or your online activity without probable cause and a warrant. Second, there are no laws to prevent the government from buying that same information from the people to whom we voluntarily give it. Read that sentence again. Now, ask yourself what would happen if the government uses information that it buys (with your tax dollars) from the people to whom we gave the information and then uses that information to investigate or charge you with a crime? Can't happen? It already is happening. One of the prime areas of focus of charges based on data “acquired” by the government is… well… you can probably guess…

In episode 5 of Deep Dive into Critical Race Theory, Will and Khiara discuss the implications of critical race theory interacts on education. They start with critical race theory and K-12 education, including some surprising arguments about Brown v. Board of Education. Then they graduate to affirmative action in college admissions. They also discuss what makes CRT "radical" and what true educational "utopia" would look like.

Recent elections and the January 6, 2021 U.S. Capitol insurrection have underscored worrisome trends in the present state of our democracy: the extreme polarization of the electorate, the dismissal of people with opposing views, and the widespread acceptance and circulation of one-sided and factually erroneous information. Only a small proportion of those who are eligible actually vote, and a declining number of citizens actively participate in local community activities.In Flunking Democracy, Michael Rebell makes the case that this is not a recent problem, but rather that for generations now, America's schools have systematically failed to prepare students to be capable citizens. In the book and in this interview, he specific recommendations for how the courts can and should address this deficiency. He also talks about his efforts to make those ideas a reality — including petitioning the U.S. Supreme Court later this year.Rebell is Professor of Law and Educational Practice and Executive Director of the Center for Educational Equity at Teachers College.Additional InformationCook v.

Before nine Black students took their first steps inside Little Rock Central High School in 1957, testing the Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education ruling for the first time, the most important educational institutions for Black students in the South were the 4,977 Rosenwald Schools co-founded by philanthropist Julius Rosenwald. According to Robert Stanton, the vice board chair of the Julius Rosenwald National Park Campaign, these Rosenwald schools should be memorialized as national historic sites, just like Little Rock Central High School, so no one can forget their importance. This week, Stanton, who also served as head of the National Park Service, joins Debi Ghate for a conversation about his childhood in segregated Texas, his career in the National Park Service and the courageous parents who pushed for desegregated schools and educational excellence for their children.

Brown v. Board of Education ended the doctrine of “separate but equal” in public schools, and it laid the legal foundation to challenge segregation in every arena. So what’s a baby doll doing in the middle of it? This episode is a part one in a series examining the impact of dolls in American history.

How have the Clark doll tests, used the overturn legalized segregation in Brown v. Board of Education, held up to modern analysis? This episode is a part two in a series examining the impact of dolls in American history.

This landmark case is one of the pillars of the modern Civil Rights movement. In order to overturn Plessey 1896 the NAACP needed to prove that separate could never be equal. It took Linda Brown, some dolls, and Thurgood Marshall to demonstrate the inferiority that Black America felt regardless of how "equal" the separate facility was.

On April 12, 2012, Jill Titus delivered a lecture entitled "Brown's Battleground in Prince Edward County, Virginia". When the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its decision in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, Prince Edward County abolished its public school system rather than integrate. In her new book, Brown's Battleground: Students, Segregationists, and the Struggle for Justice in Prince Edward County, Virginia, Jill Titus situates the crisis in Prince Edward County within the seismic changes brought by Brown and Virginia's decision to resist desegregation. She reveals the ways that ordinary people, black and white, battled, and continue to battle, over the role of public education in the United States. Dr. Titus is associate director of the C. V. Starr Center for the Study of the American Experience at Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland. (Introduction by Paul Levengood)

On February 22, 2007, Dr. DeLaney delivered this Banner Lecture at the VHS. In 1954 the Supreme Court held in Brown v. Board of Education that segregation by race in public schools was unconstitutional. In subsequent years, the course of integration followed a slow and varied path. The unfolding of that experience in the schools of western Virginia, particularly as related through oral history interviews, is the special focus of research by Theodore C. DeLaney. Dr. DeLaney is associate professor of history and director of the African American Studies Program at Washington and Lee University. (Introduction by Nelson D. Lankford)
