Friends,Heather is traveling. I'm delighted that our friend Kamau Bell has stepped into the breach. Today, Kamau and I take a deep dive into Trump's War — his shifting rationales for it, his changing goals, his ambiguous endgame, the human costs of the war so far, the American public's unhappiness with it, and what Trump is trying to deflect attention from (spoiler: Trump's shitty economy and his connections to Jeffrey Epstein). We then turn to Kristi Noem's brief and ignoble tenure as secretary of Homeland Security, why Trump really sacked her, and whether her successor is likely to do any better. Finally, we look at this past week's primary elections and ask what they portend for Democrats in the midterms and beyond. All this and more on today's Klatch. Please pull up a chair, grab a cuppa, and join in the discussion. This is a public episode.

In the Season 4 Finale (Episode 7) of Hahnacity the Podcast, we're joined by Savannah Kamau and her mother, Tracy Adams—two generations of gymnasts whose shared journey through sport has shaped their identities, their relationship, and the way they now show up for others.Savannah began competitive gymnastics at just six years old, spending a decade navigating the beauty, intensity, and challenges of a sport that brought both pride and hardship. Now a retired gymnast and coach at The Rise Gym, she reflects on how injuries, setbacks, and moments of triumph shaped her resilience and deepened her passion for helping young athletes feel supported and understood. Tracy, a retired gymnast herself, shares the emotional experience of watching her daughter grow through sport—holding space for both the joy and the vulnerability that come with chasing big dreams.Together, they close out Season 4 with an honest conversation about family, identity, healing, and what gymnastics gave them—and what it asked of them. This finale is a reflection on legacy, growth, and the lasting bond between athlete and parent long after competition ends.Work with Joy Hahn Silva Millora: www.instagram.com/with_joy.hs/Work with Laura Hahn-Segundo Collins, LCSW: lcollinslcsw.com, @theathletepsychotherapistMusic by Pathfire: Nathan Collins and Sean TitoneIntro Edited by Ian LevensteinEpisodeEdited by Hahnacity

One of the primary challenges for the health of the Church is that it's made up of… well, people. We are prone to division and easily fall into traps of “othering” those not like ourselves. The good news is that God's Spirit is constantly working to overcome those divisions to make us one. It is God's Holy Spirit who allows a diverse community of faith, made up of different cultures, perspectives, and backgrounds, into a single, unified body. In a time filled with political rage, cultural tribalism, and divisive rhetoric, ideas of unity, even within the Church, can sometimes seem like wishful thinking. However, if we allow the Spirit of Unity to transform us, we can overcome the hatred of our time and demonstrate to the world that an entirely different kind of community is possible. What might it look like to invite the Holy Spirit to give us hearts of unity this year, as we allow our lives to be shaped by the others-focused, self-giving love of Jesus?

We're living through a moment where late night jokes are next-day news, and each opening monologue feels like a litmus test for our freedom of expression. But is this dynamic anything new? This week, comedian Dean Obeidallah and writer Kliph Nesteroff join Kamau to reflect on the history—and present state—of censorship in comedy, and what makes this moment more than a callback. This episode was recorded on Monday, November 10, in the lead-up to the New York Arab American Comedy Festival, which Dean co-founded more than two decades ago. Kliph's insights are drawn from research that he conducted for his book Outrageous: A History of Showbiz and the Culture Wars.
Frog costumes. The Star Wars theme. Whistlemania. These could be the sights and sounds of Halloween—but this year, they've taken on new meaning. As federal agents and military troops arrive in their cities across the country, communities have used pop culture references, humor, and irreverence as an act of resilience. They've also banded together to form school escorts and other protective measures for their neighbors. This week, we're exploring how residents of three cities have met this moment. We have three ACLU experts joining us. First up, we have Chandra S. Bhatnagar and Ed Yohnka of the ACLU of Southern California and Illinois. And around the 46-minute mark, Monica Hopkins of the ACLU of DC joins Kamau to discuss deployments in the nation's capital. Want to get involved? Here are two actions you can take right now: action.aclu.org/send-message/tell-congress-no-troops-our-streets action.aclu.org/send-message/tell-congress-stop-masked-agents And if you're still curious about the deployments, there's a great explainer on YouTube: “Ask an ACLU Expert: President Trump's Deployment of Federal Forces to Our Communities” with Hina Shamsi. https://youtu.be/1wQLAqD-KFM?si=LGsW6vlAM_A-1WKo At Liberty is a production of the ACLU.

This summer, Emmy Award-winning journalist Mario Guevara was covering a protest near Atlanta when local law enforcement arrested him. Then, ICE detained him. For more than 100 days, the agency refused his release, citing his reporting as dangerous. And on October 3rd, after more than 20 years of living in the United States, he was deported to El Salvador. This week, the ACLU's Scarlet Kim, who served on Guevara's legal team, joins Kamau to discuss his case and why it should sound alarm bells for us all. Then, the ACLU's Jessica Herman Weitz drops in to discuss another Emmy Award winner in the headlines for free speech repression: Jimmy Kimmel.

EP#850 TCB Infomercial w W Kamau Bell Comedian, writer, and social commentator W. Kamau Bell joins The Commercial Break for an unflinching, funny, and deeply human conversation about America's growing cultural divides. From his Emmy-winning series United Shades of America to his fearless stand-up and activism, Kamau has spent years walking into rooms most people would run from—talking with the KKK, white nationalists, and everyone in between—to find the common threads of empathy, ignorance, and humor that bind us. Bryan digs into how Kamau prepares for uncomfortable conversations, the role comedy still plays in bridging divides, and why satire may be our last best hope in a world that can't agree on anything. With warmth, wit, and insight, this episode explores what it really means to laugh, listen, and learn in modern America.

Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield co-host this week's program. In the first half-hour, Mickey Huff talks with professor Omar Zahzah about his forthcoming book: Terms of Servitude. His book examines both the current Gaza genocide, and also how Palestine and the Palestinian resistance serves as a window into a global system of digital censorship against liberation struggles like that of Palestine. Then Eleanor welcomes back Kamau Franklin to talk about the book he co-edited: No Cop City, No Cop World. Kamau discusses the diversity of tactics used by the movement opposing Atlanta's Cop City, as well as the derision they've encountered from local politicians and commercial media. Omar Zahzah is an Assistant Professor of Arab, Muslim, Ethnicities and Diaspora Studies (AMED) at San Francisco State University, and has been an organizer for Palestinian liberation for many years. His book, Terms of Servitude: Zionism, Silicon Valley, and Digital Colonialism in the Palestinian Liberation Struggle is forthcoming from the Censored Press. Kamau Franklin is the founder of Community Movement Builders, and has been a community organizer for over 30 years, first in New York City and now in Atlanta. He also practiced civil rights and criminal law for ten years in New York. The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy. The post Digital Settler Colonialism in Palestine & Beyond / No Cop City, No Cop World appeared first on KPFA.
Can humor help us make sense of unprecedented threats to our civil liberties? Join us this week for a special episode of At Liberty, recorded live at SeriesFest in Denver, where Kamau and moderator Mo Fry Pasic explore Kamau's signature style of sociopolitical comedy, how something can be funny without being true, and why laughter means we're paying attention. You can hear Mo in conversation with a different comedian each week on their podcast, Worse Than You with Mo Fry Pasic. And you can keep up with SeriesFest year-round at seriesfest.com. Our senior executive producer is Sam Riddell. This episode was executive produced by Jessica Herman Weitz for the ACLU, and W. Kamau Bell and Melissa Hudson Bell, PhD for Who Knows Best Productions. At Liberty is edited and produced by Erica Getto and Myrriah Gossett for Good Get.
This summer marks the 100th anniversary of the Scopes trial, a Tennessee case where science and religion squared off in court — and the whole country tuned in. This week, the ACLU's Daniel Mach joins Kamau to discuss the landmark trial, how it shaped our contemporary understanding of religious freedom in the United States, and what the Constitution actually says about the separation between church and state. One note is that this episode was recorded just before a court ruled that an Arkansas law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public schools is unconstitutional. This is a victory for religious freedom. It is also a reminder that this freedom is increasingly under threat. To learn more about this case and others like it, visit aclu.org Daniel Mach is the director of the ACLU Program on Freedom of Religion and Belief. Our senior executive producer is Sam Riddell. This episode was executive produced by Jessica Herman Weitz for the ACLU, and W. Kamau Bell, Kelly Rafferty, PhD, and Melissa Hudson Bell, PhD for Who Knows Best Productions. It was recorded at Skyline Studios in Oakland, CA. At Liberty is edited and produced by Erica Getto and Myrriah Gossett for Good Get.
After 104 days in detention, Mahmoud Khalil is home. And this week, we're honored to have him join us in studio for his first extended conversation with the ACLU. He and Kamau reflect on Mahmoud's time in ICE custody, the importance of people power, and how he's settling back into life in New York — from attending a widely publicized comedy show to spending quiet moments with his family. Our senior executive producer is Sam Riddell. This episode was executive produced by Jessica Herman Weitz for the ACLU, and W. Kamau Bell, Kelly Rafferty, PhD, and Melissa Hudson Bell, PhD for Who Knows Best Productions. It was recorded at Gotham Production Studios in NYC.

We wrap up our three-part series on "No Cop City, No Cop World," by speaking with co-editor and contributor Kamau Franklin, founder of Community Movement Builders, a Black member-based collective of community residents and activists serving Black working-class and poor Black communities.

It's because of the First Amendment that we have a right to protest abuses of power, advocate for our neighbors, and defend our privacy. But what does the U.S. Constitution actually say about freedom of speech? This week, the ACLU's Emerson Sykes joins Kamau to break down this fundamental right. We cover everything from why free speech issues aren't always First Amendment issues to why 1A rights don't mean much if they don't protect everyone—including people and groups we don't agree with. Our senior executive producer is Sam Riddell. This episode was executive produced by Jessica Herman Weitz for the ACLU, and W. Kamau Bell, Kelly Rafferty, PhD, and Melissa Hudson Bell, PhD for Who Knows Best Productions. It was recorded at Skyline Studios in Oakland, CA. At Liberty is edited and produced by Erica Getto and Myrriah Gossett for Good Get.
We sit down with Kamau Sadiki, a renown Black scuba diver who is featured in the film DESCENDANT which tells the story of the Clotilda, the last ship to reach the US, carrying kidnapped and enslaved Africans. Kamau was part of the team that recovered the remains of the ship. Kamau was also on the team that recovered the remains of a Tuskegee airman's plane that crashed and sank in Lake Huron in Michigan.
What happens when two of America's most fearless voices on race come together for an unfiltered conversation? In this powerful episode, host Mick sits down with Emmy and Peabody-winning storyteller W. Kamau Bell and education equity architect Glenn Singleton to explore what drives their decades-long commitment to racial justice. The conversation dives deep into what Bell calls "the Black baton" – the generational responsibility passed down through families to make life better for those who come after. "When my grandparents handed the black baton to my parents, it was lighter than when they got it," Bell explains, describing his mission to ensure it doesn't become heavier during his lifetime. Singleton echoes this sentiment, sharing that his work stems from recognizing that his generation has "more than we've ever had" and feeling responsible to continue the progress. Both men offer practical wisdom about having these crucial conversations. Singleton breaks down his groundbreaking "Beyond Diversity" framework, celebrating its 30th anniversary, which begins with the fundamental question: "What impact does race have on my life?" Bell shares how he navigates these discussions with his three daughters, emphasizing that even his seven-year-old understands political realities in age-appropriate ways. "Justice is sometimes a thing you see that authority will tell you not to see," he explains, highlighting how he empowers his children to recognize injustice. Perhaps most valuable is their guidance for those hesitant to engage in race conversations for fear of saying something wrong. Bell suggests examining your social circle – are you surrounded by people who will lovingly "call you in" when you misspeak? Singleton adds that understanding the "paramount importance of racial justice" in American society is the starting point, followed by recognizing that "race is a symbol of power" with whiteness at the top of the hierarchy. Whether you're a parent trying to have these conversations with your children, a professional navigating workplace dynamics, or simply someone committed to building a more equitable society, this episode offers both inspiration and practical approaches to moving beyond comfort into the spaces where real change happens.

W. Kamau Bell has made a career out of asking uncomfortable questions about race in America – both as a standup comedian and in his award-winning CNN series, United Shades of America. In this episode, Kamau shares the soundtrack to his life story – from bombing onstage as a young standup to inheriting “the family hardware store” of fighting racism. Here are his songs.

Kamau Bell has a long and impressive resume, including hosting seven seasons of the CNN docuseries United Shades of America, winning a Peabody Award for We Need to Talk About Cosby, and winning the third season of Celebrity Jeopardy, and he’s about to take off on his “Who’s With Me” standup tour. Kamau wore a T-shirt on TV that read, “Not All Macaroni and Cheeses are Created Equal,” a political message and “insider Black conversation” that he explains to host Rachel Belle. We’ll also learn the true history of mac & cheese in America, a narrative that took 200 years to uncover, with James Beard Award-winning food historian Michael W. Twitty and Gayle Jessup White, a descendant of both Thomas Jefferson and James Hemmings, the enslaved head chef of Jefferson’s Monticello kitchen. Kamau tells host Rachel Belle about his experience traveling to Kenya with Anthony Bourdain, where his unadventurous eating tendencies were seriously challenged, and of course he shares his last meal.

In this episode of At Liberty, W. Kamau Bell makes his debut as the official host, marking an exciting new chapter for the ACLU podcast. Joined by ACLU National Legal Director Cecillia Wang, the first podcast of 2025 dives deep into the pressing challenges facing civil liberties in America today. In this episode, Cecillia and Kamau discuss the new administration's first days in office, examining the wave of executive orders that threaten fundamental rights - from birthright citizenship to asylum seekers' protections, transgender rights, voting access, and criminal justice reform. Cecillia Wang, who oversees the ACLU's extensive legal operations, provides expert insight into these developments and the organization's strategic response.
You may recognize W. Kamau Bell from his multi-Emmy award-winning docuseries United Shades of America, or from his Substack Who's With Me, or from his commercials for the ACLU. If you're a long-time ACLU supporter, you'll know Bell has worked with us for more than a decade as our artist ambassador for racial justice. We're excited to have him as our interim host for our At Liberty podcast, where he will host conversations with leaders, legal experts, artists, and storytellers dedicated to the fight for civil rights and civil liberties. In this episode, Kamau delves into fundamental flaws with the death penalty, with Herman Lindsey, an exoneree who spent three years on death row for a crime he didn't commit, and Cassy Stubbs, director of the ACLU's Capital Punishment Project. Through Lindsey's powerful first-hand account of being wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death, and Cassy's expertise representing people on death rows across the country, they unpack why the death penalty is broken from start to finish, doesn't keep us safe, and magnifies racial discrimination. With President Biden's term coming to a close and President-elect Trump threatening to accelerate federal executions and expand the death penalty, Cassy and Kamau discuss Biden's critical chance to commute the sentences of all 40 people currently on federal death row and walk us through what we can do to help make it happen.

If you're a long-time ACLU supporter, you'll know Bell has worked with us for more than a decade as our Artist Ambassador for Racial Justice. We're excited to have him as our interim host for our At Liberty podcast, where he will host conversations with leaders, legal experts, artists, and storytellers dedicated to the fight for civil rights and civil liberties. In this episode, Kamau discusses how gender-affirming health care can save lives with activist and Emmy-nominated actress Nava Mau and Dr. Susan Lacy, a board-certified gynecologist who has provided the care at her Memphis clinic for decades. They get into how the transgender community accesses this health care, why it's vital to them, the misconceptions around it, and why — on the heels of a Supreme Court case that could threaten access — we all need to get involved. The case, U.S. v. Skrmetti, centers on when, where, and how the government can discriminate against transgender people and the health care they receive. Mau and Dr. Lacy, a plaintiff in the case representing herself and her patients, address what's at stake and what practical next steps we can take to help protect transgender rights from an avalanche of legal and legislative battles.
