Do election debates still matter?

Kyle spent 6 months in pro-BBM tiktok and would like to talk to you about how they weaponize nostalgia!

In this episode of Debatable, we talk about how to run arguments about giving reparations for historical wrongs, taking an interest in Black History Month as a form of symbolic reparations and remembrance.

We know that we have human rights, but where do they come from and how are they enforced? In this episode, Nina talks to Kyle's group in his Human Rights Theory and Practice class. We discuss the philosophical basis for human rights, how they're enforced, how to tell if there are violations of human rights, and a lot more!

2021 was... A year— not quite normal, but also not as not-normal as 2020. One of the changes we saw was the continued rise of online tournaments. With this rise was a variety of debate topics we haven't seen in our community in a while. In this episode, we look at our favorite motions from 2021.
