| Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (New York City) Weekly edition posted 7-5-22: Luke Harris and Joe Torres on America’s Racist Legacy Counterspin (regular weekly feature of TJR) Available at FAIR's website fair.org/counterspin 2021 From July 30, 2021 (a year ago):
Listeners will have heard of the campaign against ‘critical race theory,' a set of ideas of which rightwing opponents gleefully acknowledge they know and care nothing, but are using as cover to attack any race-conscious, that’s to say accurate and appropriate, teaching.

In this week’s WhoWhatWhy podcast, we talk with professor Corey Brettschneider. He is an expert on the US constitution, editor of the Penguin Liberty series, and a professor of constitutional law and politics at Brown University.
Brettschneider argues that we should view democracy not just as a process, a tool of governance, a way of casting and counting votes. What’s actually at stake in defending democracy are the underlying values that it represents: the free exchange of ideas that allows us to reason, debate, and seek the truth — concepts at the heart of the Enlightenment, and the design elements of the Founders when they shaped the US constitution. ...

In March of 2006, John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago, and Steven Walt Of Harvard published their seminal book revealing the machinations of the powerful Israeli Lobby.
