Hear Me Out: Colonialism Never Ended
On today\u2019s episode of Hear Me Out: don\u2019t scare me like that, colonizer.\n\nUnderstanding the legacy of colonialism is a project relatively few Americans have undertaken \u2014 and most have done so only relatively recently, at that.\n\nBut understanding the forces that led to the foundation of this country, and the creation of modern racism as we know it, is an important project. And it\u2019s one that is also increasingly hard to bring into schools \u2014 especially in places like Florida.\n\nBarry Mauer of UCF joins us once again to argue for teaching the ongoing project of colonialism\u2026 in the name of stopping it.\n\nIf you have thoughts you want to share, or an idea for a topic we should tackle, you can email the show: hearmeout@slate.com\n\nPodcast production by Maura Currie.\n\nWant more Hear Me Out?
