Summer Friday: Voting Rights Crisis; Learning Heritage Languages; Considering Friendship
On this Summer Friday, we've put together some of our favorite recent interviews, including:
Eric Holder, former U.S. attorney general under Pres. Obama, chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, and Sam Koppelman, author and director of surrogate speech-writing on the Biden-Harris presidential campaign, talk about their new book, Our Unfinished March: The Violent Past and Imperiled Future of the Vote-A History, a Crisis, a Plan (One World, 2022), the connections between the Supreme Court decision in Shelby & Dobbs, and redistricting.
Maria Carreira, co-founder of the National Heritage Language Resource Center at UCLA and professor emerita of Spanish at California State University, Long Beach, offers tips to listeners who want to learn the language or languages they grew up hearing at home.
Jennifer Senior, staff writer at The Atlantic, kicks off and wraps up a discussion of how we make and keep friends as adults. The hour includes calls on parenting and friendship, advice for making friends in adulthood, and Margaret Atwood, author of short stories, essays and novels, including The Handmaid's Tale, and her latest collection, Burning Questions: Essays and Occasional Pieces, 2004 to 2021 (Doubleday, 2022), talks about her response to Jennifer Senior's take on friendship in middle-age and how things change with friends as we get even older.
