What Next: Columbia Cracks Down
Professor Joe Howley has been working with student protesters for almost a year. When they occupied his building, he got texts from the kids—and nothing from the administration. Now that Columbia’s called the cops, and nearly 100 demonstrators have been arrested, what does that mean for the future of the institution—and for free speech on campus nationwide?
Guest: Joe Howley, associate professor in the Columbia University Classics Department

Student Protests Can Backfire (Badly)
On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: solidarity?
College campuses across the country are grappling with protests and occupations in the name of a free Palestine. Many hundreds of students, faculty, and outside community members have been arrested in tense clashes with police — called onto campuses by the universities themselves.
Student protestors have shaped public discourse on matters like war and the environment for many decades. But without a clear, sympathetic goal, they can also lead to political backlash that far outlasts a four-year degree.
So are today’s student protestors instigating change in Gaza… or teeing up a crackdown on speech and protest here at home?
Prof. Steven Mintz of UT Austin joins us, and urges a cautionary look at the history books.

A Word: True Life, True Crime
True crime is a hot topic for movies, television, and –yes– podcasts. At the center of many of these stories is a missing woman. In the She Has A Name podcast, veteran journalist Tonya Mosley tries to reconstruct the death –and life– of a woman who went missing in 1987, a woman who happens to be her long lost sister. On today’s episode of A Word, Jason Johnson is joined by Tonya Mosley to talk about uncovering the mystery around her sister Anita’s disappearance and death, and how the podcast helped her connect to a family that she never knew.
Guest: Tonya Mosley, host of the podcast She Has A Name

Klantrecensies
Indignation explained
This show doesn't hide its position: it will stay until Trump is gone. But it also provides a great insight in why his behaviour is problematic. With a funny reading of the president's tweets.
Stop the American bashing is socialism.
What’s this twisted American brain fart that socialism is to be grouped in with super negative ideologies like fascism or communism. It’s 2020, either learn what socialism actually is or stop talkings about it. Greetings from Amsterdam.
OK but worn out
I have been a listener from the very early days - well before Trump got elected. It was great back then.
These days, it offer less new stuff, and less depth, relative to the rest of the field. The format and the people seem a bit worn out to me. It repeats itself.
The founder - Jacob Weissberg - leaving improved things. He seemed to be repeating himself and was - to me - overly emotional and partisan.
What irritates me is the constant pushing of Slate Plus. And the other begging for money. These days, they even stop mid-programme, saying ‘the rest is only for paying members’. It is of course allowed, but I decided to quit. It is not special enough (anymore) to pay for.
