Foregone Conclusions

“Why do you focus on only the race aspect when the socio-economic is so huge? To drum up hate against white parents? As a single white dad who has worked hard to scrape by while being an ally you are ignoring the complexity here, “white” is less about race than a group of racist trying to form a new race from a hodgepodge of people who have fought, killed and committed great atrocities against each other over millennia. If our allies in the broader American community also insist “white” people are evil they are part of the group shoving potential friends into a box with the racists. Why use the platform like that? Address the true despicableness of racism and push to detangle the power abuse so we do not allow the system to simply put a new “better race” above others. The story itself is a needed perspective on injustice in the New York school system, we need that! We need to seek social justice! Why market the story simply as to why white parents are ruining things? I get the goal but this was done poorly.”

“This is fantastic! I just got my IPod, and felt that the only thing really missing was having TAL (aka the best show on radio) with me while I walked about. Is it too much to say that this will make me a better person? I don't think so. Thank you, thank you.”Read full review »

“I am so glad Ira Glass and the WBEZ Alliance decided to make this podcast available! It's my Saturday afternoon escape from life as a REALTOR. Generally, my clients like to listen as well. Having it available during other times is a wonderful addition to the weekday.”Read full review »

“I subscribed to Audible JUST for the pleasure of downloading TAL to my I-Pod. I usually burn a DVD of the show and it gets passed around to at least 5 people. Yard work, housework, or any job flies by when your listen to this show. I've been a listener for years and have never heard a bad show!”Read full review »
