  • Episode 120: Recap, This Week⋮ A Pointcast Podcast
    Guest Host, Sasha Estrella-Jones, with Dr. Tracy Harris, Anna Neawedde (News Trends) Francine Dash (Weekly Poll), on the roundtable.
    This week, we share our weekly poll feedback and the news trends, including a story of a man facing up to 40 years for voting in Texas. Then the roundtable discusses Indiana AG Rokita's proposal to remove all talks about race from K-12 schools and the proposed change to the South African constitution that would allow the women of South Africa to marry more than one husband -- and why this might be a good idea.

  • Episode 119: We, the Voters...⋮ A Pointcast Podcast
    CRT and Racial Equality, Host, Francine Dash
    CRT is not being taught in K through 12 schools. So, the uproar doesn't really make sense. CRT is taught in law schools as an attempt at explaining systemic racism and motivations behind keeping systems in place, at the cost of equality. What it doesn't say is that racial deconstruction has to take place in order to have true equality.

  • Episode 118: Smart Politix⋮ A Pointcast Podcast
    Crime Statistics and The Wire, Host, Anthony Arnold

From crimes that simply never go reported, to crimes that are miscategorized or lost in administrative red tape, there is a lot more crime occurring than we believe.
