Finding the Warmth of Our Sun Matthew Braunginn

The implication and action of leaving "high risk" populations to fend for themselves is a policy of eugenics. We are disposable, and with 40% of the country having at least one chronic illness, that makes 40% of us disposable as a "drag on the nation" to some, and a sacrifice to capitalism for others.

Matthew is joined by co-author David M. Perry of the Bright Ages where they discuss the book, how it peels back the layers of Medieval Europe to expose not a dark or backward age, but one with diversity, culture, and more. They explore how we can see our modern age within it, with all the mess that comes with being human- the highs and lows.

The mentality of those who believe putting cops in schools will end the fights at East High school, is a mentality that using a stick is how you keep order, especially among Black and Brown populations. It is a colonial mentality. It also is one that doesn't understand the dynamics of our society, of behavior, the threat of violence through police may create order but it won't create safety; many times not the former either. What does this tell us about these people? How can we understand our social dynamics and what can be done?

In the face of fights at Madison schools, it seems white parents are calling for cops in schools. But another district, which at the surface level seems to have had a worse fighting problem, solved this through community and community alternatives. Affluent white parents should do the same, or at least commit the resources to do so. What are they scared of? And then to wrap up, a couple of high profile examples of police lying, again, and one of them is within Madison.
