    The Long Hunt for the Unabomber | Revisited @ 30

    It’s been 30 years since FBI agents finally captured the man who mailed more than 16 bombs to unsuspecting victims in the US, killing 3 and injuring 23 others. For two decades officials searched for the elusive terrorist known as the Unabomber. His victims appeared random, his motives unclear and the only sighting of him resulted in a nowfamous composite drawing of a man in a hoodie with aviator sunglasses. In this episode, originally broadcast in 2021, we explore the investigation and capture of Ted Kazinski. This is The Long Hunt for the Unabomber.

    The Testimony of Anita Hill | 153

    In July 1991 President George HW Bush nominated Clarence Thomas to the US Supreme Court. Initial reaction to the nomination suggested there would be a contentious Senate confirmation battle that would probe Thomas’s conservative views on issues such as abortion and affirmative action.  But there was no real concern that Bush’s pick might not be approved. That is until one woman’s testimony threatened to derail the entire process.  In this episode of History of the 90s we look back at the moment when the little know concept of workplace sexual harassment was catapulted into public consciousness.  This is the testimony of Anita Hill.  Guest Info: Rev. Dr. Traci C. West;   Professor of Christian Ethics and African American Studies at Drew University Theological School in Madison, NJ www.traciwest.com Show Info:  Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@that90spodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email:  ⁠1995podcast@gmail.com⁠ Tik Tok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠90spodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ Substack: ⁠@historyofthe90s⁠ Hosted on Acast.
