Booknotes+
July 23 will mark the 55th anniversary of the Detroit Race Riot.
Forty-three people died and more than a thousand were injured during
that chaotic week in 1967. Our guest, professor Clarence Lusane, was
there. His mother and sister were shot. We talk to him about that
experience, his academic career and his activism. He is a professor
of political science at Howard University in Washington,
D.C. Hear our conversation with Professor Lusane this week on Booknotes+.
The Weekly
The Weekly looks
back at the 2020 State of the Union address, in which former
President Trump discussed the killing of terrorist leader Qasem
Soleimani — and got big applause. Will President Biden mention his
killing of an ISIS leader in his first State of the Union
address next week? The Weekly considers
that question and remembers Trump's many mentions of Soleimani on the
2020 campaign trail in this new episode.
Also: This
week on the Lectures
in History podcast,
Emory University professor Carol Anderson discusses efforts in the
early 1960s to register Black voters in Mississippi, and some of the
leaders of the movement.
