February 01, 2020 Resolving Conflict, "Town Meeting" Style
Long before the United States became a nation and implemented American

democracy as we know it today, there were town meetings. Nearly 400 years

later, the town meeting tradition has endured in New England, though with

each passing decade, towns are seeing a steady decline in participation.

On this episode of Peace Talks Radio, correspondent Sarah Holtz brings us

a conversation about conflict resolution through the lens of town meeting.

We'll hear from four individuals who actively participate in their own

town meetings.

February 01, 2020 Facing Our Fears - What's Real & What's Imagined?
It's easy to be fearful in the world today. But how much of our fear is

based on things that are not actual threats? Today, 3 takes. One says fear

is unequally distributed in the U.S.- onto people of color. Another guest

says, in general there's less to be afraid of than we're led to believe.

And our other guest says, we're misdirecting our fear when it comes to the

major threats to our national security. Guests are Janet Napolitano, Barry

Glassner, and Reggie Jackson. Host, Megan Kamerick.

February 01, 2020 Addressing Economic Class Conflict
While some organizations and individuals believe there is multidimensional

inequality in the U.S., this PEACE TALKS RADIO program is only about

economic class conflict - not social, political, or cultural inequality.

We talk with two good thinkers on the topic: Dr. Tina Wright, a

sociologist, who teaches at LA Southwest College and Nick Hanauer, a

self-described "proud and unapologetic capitalist" who's become a leading

critic of income inequality and modern economic policy. He's also the host

of the weekly podcast "Pitchfork Economics".

February 01, 2020 Learning Lessons from History to Make Peace Today
At the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial in Poland, a quote on the wall of one

of the cell blocks reads, "Those who do not remember the past are

condemned to repeat it." These words are attributed to George Santayana,

and they help explain why the former death camp is still open for public

viewing 74 years after it was shut down. Historical amnesia was a real

danger after the Holocaust, and with so many other tragedies that have

followed, it's still a threat today.
