Send Wilk a text with your feedback!Raising Informed Citizens: The Power of Civic Education and EngagementToday, we're tackling yet another topic that couldn't be more relevant—civic education and the role we all play in shaping the next generation of informed citizens. Politics today is often framed as a battlefield, where division and outrage seem to dominate the conversation. But what if we approached it differently? What if we saw civic engagement not as a fight, but as a shared responsibility—one that starts at home?My guest today is Lindsey Cormack, an associate professor of Political Science and Director of the Diplomacy Lab at Stevens Institute of Technology. She's the author of How to Raise a Citizen (And Why It's Up to You to Do It), a book that explores the vital role parents play in helping their children understand our government, engage in politics constructively, and become active participants in democracy. Lindsey's work also includes maintaining DC Inbox, a digital archive of congressional e-newsletters, giving her unique insight into how politics is communicated to the public.In this conversation, we'll discuss why civic education has been deprioritized, how media algorithms shape our perceptions, and why understanding different political perspectives is crucial for a healthy democracy. Most importantly, we'll explore how parents and communities can work together to create a more informed and engaged electorate for the future.TakeawaysCivic education is essential for youth to understand their role in democracy.Parents play a crucial role in teaching their children about politics.The current education system often deprioritizes civics education.Political engagement should be framed positively, not negatively.Toxic polarization hinders constructive political discourse.Media algorithms often reinforce divisive narratives.Understanding both sides of the political spectrum is vital for informed citizenship.Civic engagement is a shared responsibility among parents and communities.Encouraging children to participate in politics can lead to a more informed electorate.The American political system, despite its flaws, is worth understanding and preserving.Learn more about and What have you done today to make your life a better life? What have you done today to make the world a better place? The world is a better place if we are better people. That begins with each of us as individuals. Be kind to one another.

No official guests this week, instead Kehinde Andrews drops some POLITICAL EDUCATION and cracks these coconuts for us, keeping us sane in a racist world. He highlights two recent, related, and ongoing events: he's facing a "house negro" police probe and Marieha Hussain's current "coconut trial" (taking place at Westminister Magistrates Court yesterday and today).  Kehinde is facing a criminal investigation after the police came knocking on his door thanks to a complaint made by Black conservative commentator Calvin Robinson about a video posted earlier this year in which Kehinde called Calvin a "house negro." Marieha is a Brown woman charged with a hate crime over a satirical and political placard depicting former UK prime minister Rishi Sunak and former home secretary Suela Braverman as coconuts during a pro-Palestinian rally last year.  Kehinde explains why we shouldn't be surprised at these charges, as there is precedent. He breaks down how the Race Relations Act came into law in England and Wales in 1965, and how 5 of the first 6 prosecutions in 1967, for racism under this legislation were against Black and Brown people. He underlines how from the very beginning, the British state was criminalizing us, by conflating prejudice with racism the law attacks prejudice. He concludes that the whole legal framework is the problem, quoting attorney and a co-founder of critical race theory (CRT), Derrick Bell "What we designate as “racial progress” is not a solution to that problem. It is a regeneration of the problem in a particularly perverse form." - POLITICAL EDUCATION LINKS Leading Black professor faces police probe after calling former GB News host Calvin Robinson a ‘house n*gro' https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/calvin-robinson-kehinde-andrews-youtube-police-b2607648.html Marieha Hussain: Protest outside court as ‘coconut' placard trial begins by Nadine White https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/marieha-hussain-coconut-placard-trial-b2611598.html Leila Hassan Howe: ‘My life was made hell.

Black August began in the 1970s to mark the assassination of incarcerated political prisoners like the revolutionary organizer and writer George Jackson during a prison rebellion in California. Black August honors the freedom fighters, especially those inside the walls of our sprawling prison-industrial complex, who, with their vision, tenacity, and deep love for our communities, are leading us toward the horizon of abolition. The Center for Constitutional Rights is proud to be part of a rich legacy of inside-outside organizing to transform material conditions and build a world of collective safety without prisons, surveillance, and police.This Black August we bring to you an episode discussing the ongoing inside-outside organizing taking place to put an end to involuntary servitude in prisons or, more appropriately named, prison slavery. We are proud to represent incarcerated workers in Alabama as they seek to abolish forced prison labor, and we will continue to support them until slavery is banned everywhere, once and for all, in all its forms – not just in the law but in practice. Alabama is one of several states to join the growing movement to abolish prison slavery and involuntary servitude at the state and federal levels. Voters in Colorado, Nebraska, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, and Vermont have approved similar changes to their states' constitutions to remove the loophole permitting slavery as a form of punishment for incarcerated people.Speakers:Theeda Murphy - Abolish Slavery National Network, Organizer & Operations ManagerMax Parthas - Abolish Slavery National Network, National Campaign Coordinator & Paul Cuffee Abolitionist Center in Sumter, SC., Acting DirectorClaude-Michael Comeau - Promise of Justice Initiative, Staff AttorneyModerator:maya finoh, Political Education and Research Manager

This episode originally aired in May of 2023. During this season heading into a Presidential election - and all of the political news and discussions that permeate such a season - we believe this is a timely conversation to release as part of our summer hiatus time. Are you weary of the way that politics has seemed to seep into every corner of our lives, including in the education of even our youngest children? Ty Fischer and Veritas Dean of Students and humanities teacher Graham Dennis talk about the valuing a “pre-political” education, and what that looks like as we seek to cultivate a generation who can discuss an array of difficult topics with confidence, respect, and clarity. The discussion dives all the way back to the Ancient origins of the word politics and meanders into the modern era, helping us to discern how we can raise today's youth to be free thinking citizens who can rise above the mud slinging of today's political ideas. Books referenced in this episode include: ⁠Dorothy Sayers - The Mind of the Maker⁠ ⁠Plato - The Republic⁠ ⁠The Writings of Justin Martyr⁠ ⁠Russel Kirk - Edmund Burke: A Genius Reconsidered⁠ ⁠Josef Pieper - Leisure: The Basis of Culture

This episode focuses on the ongoing genocide in Palestine and examines how American government structures contribute to keeping us uninformed and oppressed. We also explore the profound local impacts right here in Kansas City.

We unpack the political intricacies and highlight the importance of understanding these connections to work towards meaningful change. Samantha shares her personal story of living in Gaza, the loss of her beloved grandmother and cousin, and the ongoing struggles her family faces due to displacement and lack of basic human rights. Her heartfelt narrative brings a human face to the statistics and news headlines, making the conversation even more compelling. We address the pressing need to support grassroots movements, hold our leaders accountable, and rethink our voting strategies beyond the traditional two-party system. This episode emphasizes the power of voting with your dollar and supporting businesses that stand for justice and equality. We delve into the role of lobbyists, corporate money, and foreign interests in shaping American politics. We also highlight the importance of local activism and how participating in local politics can create a ripple effect for national change. Join us as we challenge the status quo, advocate for campaign finance reform, and encourage you to stay informed and involved.
