Labyrinths with Amanda Knox

Really enjoying your podcast. The episode with Yasmine Mohammed was so eye opening, thank you. Shamefully, I was one of those people who (somewhat passively, without critical thought) believed we should support women’s rights to wear hijabs and hadn’t considered the counterpoint of supporting a woman's right to not wear it. Ms Mohammed articulately and persuasively asked why would anyone want to wear a hijab unless coerced to do so before the age of consent. Of course that makes sense. Duh! I’m glad you modeled how we can and should think differently, especially about matters of religion vs culture. Thanks for being brave and airing the conversation at your own risk. I didn’t think about that either until you pointed it out. Appreciate your critical thinking and desire to have open conversations about matters that impact vulnerable populations, who’s plight often has the least light shed upon them. If we’re not careful, and don’t pay attention, we risk the slow and steady erosion of freedom at the consolidation of those in power. Seeds of which are being planted now… Thank you!

Simplistic view of problems. They want to seem empathetic with all parties in the situation to the point that they trivialize the conflict.

Top notch

This is one of a handful of podcasts that I routinely listen to. Topics and guests are interesting and discussions are thought provoking.
