Episode 5 | All Things Re-Considered: Fat Acceptance & George Floyd
Fat identity/justice/liberation, intersectionality, saving public radio, interracial violence, George Floyd, Waukesha, Tony Timpa, Buffalo, data data data, qualified immunity and much more. Gina Gambony joins us for Morning Sedition and we hear from former NPR listeners about why they stopped listening.
This is our final episode of All Things Re-Considered for the season. We will release a conversation about what we learned next week. This is a great time to leave feedback about the show and suggest other topics for re-consideration (besides NPR)!
