    Chapter 7: “Even What I Say In Class”

    It’s been a year since the terminations and revocations befuddled and frightened Fordham.  Since then, President Trump’s immigration crackdown has only intensified.  As our series finale, we hear from international and immigrant students, professors and staff, about how their fears have lingered and grown in this new era of American attitude toward foreigners.  Visit our website for more info: https://www.revokedpodcast.org/listen/chapter-7

    Chapter 6: “A Different Bad Time”

    Since the Spring of 2025, the Trump Administration's rhetoric concerning immigrants has grown more disparaging and dehumanizing. Fordham religious leaders recognize they have an opportunity, and the religious conviction, to uphold human dignity.  But how? To try and answer that question, we asked Fordham-educated historians to tell us how Jesuit activists in the Bronx have fought for justice in times gone by.  Visit our website for more info: https://www.revokedpodcast.org/listen/chapter-6

    Chapter 5: “A Little Bit Like Terrorism”

    We’re zooming out to watch as the rest of April brings more SEVIS terminations.  Then, suddenly, in a random courthouse in Boston, we get a glimpse at the inner workings of ICE, and records are reinstated throughout the country. It feels like the end. But it’s not. Visit our website for more info: https://www.revokedpodcast.org/listen/chapter-5

    Chapter 4: “Why Not Everybody Rally?”

    Despite the increasingly harsh rhetoric against immigrants, religious leaders at Fordham argue that human dignity is a fundamental reality — one that their faith compels them to defend.  But in this contentious climate, the Fordham community is divided over exactly how to uphold this basic Jesuit value.  We hear from multiple professors and students as they wrestle with the history of immigration activism, and think through their future response.

    Chapter 3: “This Crisis On Campus”

    The next week after the first SEVIS termination, many things happened all at once. Another student SEVIS record is terminated, and that fact is announced to student reporters at a press conference with President Tetlow. That same day, student activists are incorrectly informed by different university staff that only one student SEVIS record had been terminated. We hear both of these stories within the same episode, and try to take a stab at a question that was bubbling up in the heat of the moment.

    Chapter 2: “Is There A Reason For It?”

    Last year, government officials often said that the visa-revoked students were pro-Palestinian activists.  But from what we could gather from our university, none of the students affected at Fordham were protesters.  Even so, students and faculty often told us that to truly understand the Spring, we have to think back to 2024, when student protesters were arrested at the Lincoln Center campus, in order to make sense of this crisis.

    Chapter 1: “The Day When It Happened”

    On April 4, 2025, Fordham informed the community that a student’s visa had been “revoked.” But that wasn’t exactly right. Just about a year later, we’re delivering a previously-unreported inside look at Fordham university on the day of the crisis.  How did students react in the moment? What is a tiger team? And if this wasn’t a revocation, then what was it? Visit our website for more info: www.revokedpodcast.org

    Preface

    Listen to this before you dive into our first chapter! We think there’s a couple things we need to clarify before we begin this story. We want to be honest about our process and our sources, so that you can judge for yourself if we’re worth trusting.  Also: We didn’t use AI to write this! The scripts, art, structure, music, all 100% human. And if we get something wrong, we want to update our story to get it right. So, contact us if you’d like to request a correction: Hello@revokedpodcast.org

    Introducing: REVOKED?

    In the spring of 2025, the Trump administration wasn’t just revoking student visas.  REVOKED? is a new investigative audio documentary written and produced by four independent student journalists.  The limited series podcast takes listeners through the turmoil over student visa statuses at Fordham University in New York City — and how that series of events still shapes campus life today.  Stay tuned for the first chapter, coming soon. [Edit Notice: April 17, 2026] We’ve made a staffing change, and so we’re updating the trailer to reflect that. You can learn more on our website: www.revokedpodcast.org
