    Todays episode starts with the usual mix of articles about racism, politics, environmental issues and a couple of American education articles I found. In the second half, I discuss world-wide racism, focusing on North America and Australia. I also have a special guest reader who reads her story about book banning and racism. The show is a little long because of her reading but it is well worth the listen.
