    Frequency of Deception (with WNYC’s Notes from America)

    Come November, an estimated 36 million Latinos will be eligible to vote in the U.S. presidential election. Across the nation, there are Spanish language radio stations invested in them as an audience — and content on those stations is targeting listeners with disinformation about the candidates, the parties and political issues. In this special episode of WNYC's Notes from America, host Kai Wright sits down with journalist Paulina Velasco from Feet in 2 Worlds to discuss “Frequency of Deception,” an investigation into the lies, rumors and propaganda that have been peppering Spanish language broadcasts in recent years. Velasco’s reporting includes egregious examples of attempts to manipulate listeners, ideas about who and what is behind these nefarious efforts, and a look at the ongoing push to combat the spread of misinformation and disinformation among vulnerable communities. This radio piece was produced as part of Frequency of Deception / Radiofrecuencia de engaños in collaboration with WNYC’s Notes from America. Frequency of Deception / Radiofrecuencia de engaños is an in-depth investigative series into misinformation and disinformation on Spanish-language radio in the United States. This series was produced by Feet in 2 Worlds in partnership with WNYC’s Notes from America, palabra and Puente News Collaborative.

    Introducing: Re:Work

    Today we’re sharing a story from Re:Work, a podcast from the UCLA Labor Center.  For the past decade, Re:Work has elevated stories of work to humanize and break down economic and racial justice issues. Each episode of Re:Work centers the life story of a worker or activist, with a focus on people of the global majority. This episode asks: Who are the people who make the clothes we wear every day? We’re about to take a journey through “Los Callejones”—Los Angeles’s garment district. Learn more about who works within this labyrinth of clothing shops and factories.

    Introducing: Living Planet

    Today’s episode comes from Living Planet, a podcast bringing you the stories, facts, and debates on the key environmental issues of our time. The story they shared with us is “Deep dive: The hidden toll of roadkill”—a phenomenon so great it’s throwing ecosystems out of balance and even threatening to wipe out whole species. In this episode, the Living Planet team investigates the best ideas out there for how we can make roads safer for wildlife, and even how to cook up roadkill, should you be tempted.

    Introducing: Subtitle

    Today’s episode comes from Subtitle, a podcast series all about language and the people who speak them. Irish is among Europe’s oldest languages. It’s a near miracle that anyone speaks it today. Host Patrick Cox talks with online Irish teacher Mollie Guidera, whose students include a Kentucky farmer who speaks Irish to his horses, and with Irish scholar Jim McCloskey, who developed a love of the language when he spent a summer living with Irish speakers. Irish is changing fast, with far more of its speakers learning it as a second language, while the native-speaking population declines.

    Introducing: Electric Futures

    Today’s episode comes from Electric Futures, a podcast series exploring lesser known stories of the energy transition. On the US-Mexican border in California lies the Imperial Valley. It is a mix of deserts and verdant green fields. For centuries, it has been a crossroad for immigrants and Americans searching for opportunities. The Imperial Valley is now participating in an on-going white gold rush – a sprint to extract lithium from brines deep in the earth. This lithium is critical to the production of electric vehicles, which are a vital element in strategies to slow growth of atmospheric CO2 concentrations and limit global warming. Charles Zukoski—Professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science and previous provost of the University of Southern California—and the team at USC Annenberg produced this episode.

    Red Lines and Zip Codes

    Your zip code can tell a lot about your health. Studies show that historically redlined neighborhoods can overlap with areas that flood the most, have the worst air quality, and experience the warmest temperatures. Our story takes us to California’s San Fernando Valley and to Newark, NJ, where immigrant families live in or near zones that have been redlined and experience health issues due to extreme heat and pollution.

    Building a Green Chicago

    In 2023, Illinois’ governor signed the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act to phase out fossil fuels by 2050 and renovate the state with green infrastructure. Chicago is one of the cities offering communities of color and those most impacted by pollution the chance to lead this energy revolution. Reporter Wendy Wei speaks with Ghanaian American Senyo Ador about how he is bringing his insights from working on energy projects in Ghana to make Chicago a more energy-equitable city for communities of color.
