Her two current projects examine civil societys vulnerability to climate change, and the present American Culture Wars which include political attempts to restrict the constitutional rights of nonprofits.It is almost a cliche in the US about the kinds of violence that the public pays attention to. Trump has been a normalizer in this trend: his kind of violence not only uses words, but he incites others to commit acts of violence, and promises that he will defend the perpetrators, and now, has even promised that he will free those who are in prison. But violence is often an act of desperation. We talk about the feelings of many people about health care, and the lack thereof.We then also discuss the possible response to Trump's agenda. The Democrats need to create a way for communities to respond. This also means many different kinds of communities. We must not sanitize fascism, and thus ignore it when it is obvious.
2024 has been dubbed the "year of elections," and it comes as democratic backsliding is on the rise. Now that Donald Trump is returning to the White House, what does that spell for the fate of democracy worldwide? Piya Chattopadhyay moderates the 2024 Stanfield Conversation – a series focusing on critical challenges to democracy and imaginative and inspiring responses to them – at Dalhousie University in Halifax. This year's featured guests are The Globe and Mail's international affairs columnist Doug Saunders and McGill University political scientist and Canada Research Chair in Racial Inequality in Democratic Societies, Debra Thompson.
The 1960 California Master Plan for Higher Education remains to this day the largest and most ambitious attempt to provide free, universal college education in the United States. Yet the Master Plan, the product of committed Cold War liberals, unfortunately served to reinforce the very class-based exclusions and de facto racism that plagued K–12 education in the nation's largest and most diverse state. In doing so, it inspired a wave of student and faculty organizing that not only forced administrators and politicians to live up to the original promise of the Master Plan—quality higher education for all—but changed the face of California itself. Higher Education for All: Racial Inequality, Cold War Liberalism, and the California Master Plan (UNC Press, 2023) is the first and only comprehensive account of the California Master Plan. Through deep archival work and sharp attention to a fascinating cast of historical characters, Andrew Stone Higgins has excavated the forgotten history of the Master Plan: from its origins in the 1957 Sputnik Crisis, through Governor Ronald Reagan's financial starvation and his failed quest to introduce tuition, to the student struggle to institute affirmative action in university admissions.

This episode briefly touches on the inequalities in education. Educational inequality perpetuates cycles of poverty and social injustice. The true measure of a society's greatness lies in how well it educates and uplifts its most vulnerable members.

This week on Pushback Talks, Fredrik and Leilani explore a bold proposition: What if we put the business of landlordism on trial?Nick Bano's latest work, "Against Landlords: How to Solve the Housing Crisis," serves as our guide. Bano, a barrister specializing in representing marginalized groups, takes us on a journey through the history of housing law in the UK, tracing its evolution from the Victorian era to the present day. He illuminates how this legal landscape has shifted, contributing to the current crisis of unaffordability and skyrocketing rents.Today, 1 in 21 people in the UK is a landlord, a staggering statistic that underscores the imbalance in our housing system. In this episode, Fredrik, Leilani, and Nick delve into the repercussions of this disparity, exploring how the profitability of housing impacts our ability to address the crisis. Together, they examine the potential solutions and reflect on how close Britain came to outlawing landlords.Support the Show.

Quakers have a long history of peacefully fighting for racial equality, and there is a lot to explore about their work during the Civil Rights Movement. In this episode, we share first-hand stories of Friends whose spiritual courage led them into the heart of the movement, even when they were beaten and threatened with death. Quakers were among the most influential advocates of nonviolent direct action, choosing boycotts and sit-ins over fists and guns.

The idea that structural racism has a direct impact on all facets of American life – including the experiences of elders in care settings – shouldn't be a controversial statement in 2024, but far too often, the question of equity and race-conscious policymaking gets wrapped up into a broader political discourse. Shekinah Fashaw-Walters, an assistant professor at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, joins the podcast to discuss her framework for directly and bluntly addressing the racial disparities and inequities that plague our eldercare system – and her prescriptions for creating new policies, both at the legal and building level, to ensure that everyone receives high-quality, dignified, and respectful care. We cannot fix centuries of racist wrongs by pretending that discrimination isn't baked into the structures that govern American life, and Fashaw-Walters challenges listeners to address these topics head-on.

In 2022, white residents of the Greater Boston area had about 19 times as much wealth as Black residents, $214,000 to $11,000, according to the Urban Institute. While the gap is particularly large in this part of the country, it's an issue across the US. In 2019, Black Americans held just $0.17 on average for every white dollar of wealth. Much has been written about the racial wealth gap, but how has it evolved since emancipation? Why has it been so stubbornly persistent over the past 160 years? And what role does this country's original sin of slavery continue to play in its perpetuation? The Princeton University Economist Ellora Derenoncourt takes these questions on in "The Wealth of Two Nations," a paper published last year in the Quarterly Journal of Economics. Beginning with the Civil War, Derenoncourt and her coauthors chart the way the racial wealth gap narrowed, stalled, and started to widen again in recent years. She writes, "While policies that address racial gaps in savings and capital gains can be a complement, only the redistribution of large stocks of wealth, like reparations, can immediately reduce the racial wealth gap." This month on Colloquy: the history of the racial wealth gap.

This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateAffirmative action's foes worked with conservative Chinese American organizations to sue two colleges over their admissions processes. The result was a victory for activists who have been trying to do away with affirmative action for years. What led to the June 29 decision by the Trump-packed Supreme Court finally to ban race-conscious affirmative action? In this month's “Meet the BIPOC Press” feature with URL Media, our guests fill in the blanks in the media coverage and correct some of the misconceptions about affirmative action, systemic racism, and how we got here. This time, Laura Flanders and co-host Sara Lomax of Philadelphia's WURD Radio are joined by Washington DC-based journalist Brandon Tensley, the National Politics Reporter at Capital B News, a nonprofit newsroom based in Atlanta, and Claire Jean Kim, a political scientist and Asian American studies professor at UC Irvine in Southern California. Kim is also the author of the forthcoming book “Asian Americans in an Anti-Black World”. How will the recent Supreme Court decision affect diversity and fairness in US institutions, and what does solidarity with African Americans specifically look like in the US today? “As someone who teaches about anti-Blackness and race, I can tell you how much that impacts the classroom to not have more diversity in the classroom . . . It affects the quality of education for everybody.” - Claire Jean Kim“One of the professors I spoke to put it very clearly when I asked him, ‘What will the higher education landscape look like post affirmative action?' He was like, we don't need to theorize, we don't need to sort of imagine it. We can look to where this has already happened . . . “ - Brandon Tensley Guests:Claire Jean Kim: Professor of Political Science & Asian American Studies, UC Irvine; Author, Asian Americans in an Anti-Black World (Cambridge University Press, 2023)Sara Lomax: Co-Founder, URL Media; President & CEO, WURD RadioBrandon Tensley: National Politics Reporter, Capital B News Full Episode Notes are located HERE.

Stephen Sackur speaks to Anielle Franco, Brazil's minister of racial equality. She was appointed by President Lula de Silva to tackle entrenched race inequality in everything from policing to schooling and business, just five years after her activist sister, Marielle Franco, was assassinated in Rio de Janeiro. Anielle Franco has vowed to fight racism and continue her sister's work for social justice. Is Brazil ready for change?
Riots have broken out in France after police killed a 17-year-old kid. When a similar situation occurred in '05, there were weeks of riots. We can't be sure if the same will happen here, but it's worth looking into based on France's unique demographic situation.

The disparity between how much wealth — on average — people of different racial groups hold has been well-documented through research. Yet according to one study, the size of that gap is frequently underappreciated. We talk to Ivy Oyeandor, a professor at Northwestern University and co-author of the study, about that misperception as part of our Econ Extra Credit series. And, KPMG Chief Economist Diane Swonk dissects the latest economic data, which indicates economic strength because of infrastructure spending but risks prolonging inflation.

Tax season is here and a new study is shedding light on inequalities in our tax system. Black taxpayers are at least three times more likely to be audited by the I.R.S than other taxpayers.The study, which was a collaboration between the University of Michigan, Stanford, the University of Chicago, and the U.S Treasury Department, is one of the most detailed ever on race and the tax system. The reason for this racial disparity isn't what you'd expect. The IRS isn't targeting Black taxpayers — the agency doesn't keep data on race. But the outdated algorithms it's using are. Lack of funding is another problem. We speak with a co-author of the study and a leading expert on race and the tax system later in the hour. First, we talk about funding. Want to support 1A?
