Echoes of History in the Future of Immigration: Revisiting the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965

Season 3

Tuesday, September 2, 2025 • Duration 44:47

This episode reflects on the 60th anniversary of pivotal Civil Rights Acts, including the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, which reshaped America's racial and immigration landscape. We examine the profound intersection of race, immigration, and the American legal system, exploring how these laws opened new opportunities and perpetuated systemic inequalities. From the passage of landmark legislation in the 1960s to the ongoing struggle for racial equity today, we ask: How did we get to this point? How have the legacies of these laws continued to affect marginalized communities, especially immigrants of color? And can the framework of Critical Race Theory—challenging structural racism and advocating for policy change—offer a path forward in the fight for justice and equality? Join us as we navigate the complex history and evolving discourse on race and immigration in America.

Echoes of Freedom: Artivism, Censorship and the Civil Rights Movement

Tuesday, September 2, 2025 • Duration 28:46

The civil rights era was not only a period of political revolution but of profound cultural revolution. Led by Black artists radicalized by the political and social realities of the time – the segregation, disenfranchisement and racial violence that was Jim Crow – the cultural revolution both represented the Black experience and imagined a future freed. Black artists did this, despite facing censorship and threats of violence for the political nature of their work. In this episode, we use critical race theory to situate three pieces of art in the civil rights tradition: Sam Cooke’s 1963 song, A Change is Gonna Come; Faith Ringgold’s 1971 painting, For the Women’s House; and, William Eric Water’s 2000 poem, “Even a Black Poet is Considered Armed and Extremely Dangerous”. We ask what are the civil rights legacies of these pieces and the artists that created them and what kinds of resistance did they meet and why?

The Right to Literacy

Wednesday, May 21, 2025 • Duration 40:31

In 2016, students at five schools in Detroit sued the state government for failing to provide them with even the most basic public education. Their teachers were overworked, their school buildings were falling apart, and students frequently lacked the resources to achieve reading and writing proficiency. Their complaint asserted that they were being denied a basic right: the right to literacy. In this episode, we examine the concept of a right to literacy. Why is it important to democracy, and why is it indispensable for success in the American economy? How does it intersect with race and incarceration? And in the aftermath of the students’ lawsuit, where does the right to literacy go from here? Our guests – including the lead plaintiff on the lawsuit, an attorney on the lawsuit, and educators who have worked both inside and outside of prison – will help us find the answers.

Gun/Control: The Criminalization of Black Gun Ownership in America

Season 2

Wednesday, August 14, 2024 • Duration 00:00

With tens of thousands of Americans dying every year from gun-related violence, firearm regulation is at the center of American political debate. Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court weighed in on this conversation by expanding an individual's right to bear arms under the Second Amendment in New York Rife & Pistol Ass'n v. Bruen (2022). In this episode, we use critical race theory as a tool to explore the history of the Second Amendment, firearm ownership, and gun control policies in the United States. How are firearm regulations bound up in the legal and ideological infrastructure of white supremacy? What does the history of the Second Amendment tell us about race and racism in this country?
