    171. On The Wrong Side: How Universities Protect Perpetrators and Betray Survivors of Sexual Violence with Nicole Bedera

    Join the conversation by letting us know what you think about the episode!One common belief is that our colleges and universities are safe spaces and, if we are subjected to sexual violence, our schools will protect us.

    Join the conversation by letting us know what you think about the episode!Project 2025 - it's all over the news and everyone's talking about it. Or they should be. What is it? Why should we care? To be fair, it's to be expected that a candidate for president will have a plan (not just a concept of a plan...) for how they will govern. But Project 2025 is more than that, it is The Heritage Foundation's plan which would have lasting negative, earthshattering consequences. In short, it's a plan t...
