Mon, 18 Nov 2024 - 1320 - Why is Australia trying to ban social media for children?
The Australian government is set to implement the world’s strictest ban on social media for children. The law would prohibit children under the age of 16 from accessing sites like TikTok, X, and Facebook. It will be introduced to parliament in the coming weeks, but wouldn’t be implemented until next year. What’s behind it – and how could it work?

Loneliness is as harmful to a person’s health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

But despite the alarm, experts say there are ways to cultivate a new culture of connection.

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on October 20, 2020. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.
From ballots and deadlines to envelopes and polling places, if it's part of the US election, there's probably a lawsuit about it. This is the most litigated election in US history, and decisions that could swing the result will come down to the nine unelected members of the Supreme Court. A newly appointed conservative justice has fueled fears about the court's power to decide whose votes count, and whose get thrown out.
What does that mean for people of color who have fought decades of voter suppression? And what will the election mean for the future of the Supreme Court?

Sun, 27 Oct 2024 - 1298 - Another Take: The Chagos Islands were paradise. Then came the UK and US.
Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on February 27, 2023. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.
Why haven’t the people of the Chagos Islands been allowed to go home? The archipelago in the Indian Ocean was home to Chagossians until the 1960s. As decolonization swept the globe, the UK created one last African colony. Slowly and then all at once, it forced people to leave their homes, then leased the land to the US for a military base. Chagossians have been fighting – and sometimes winning – in court to return to their home islands, and now, Human Rights Watch says that what the UK and US did amounts to crimes against humanity.

Sat, 12 Oct 2024 - 1283 - Can Gaza’s children survive its “colonial trauma”?
For Gaza’s children, there’s no “post” in post-traumatic stress disorder. The trauma is constant and relentless. Many who survived have lost parents, limbs, or both. These kids aren’t playing or going to school - they’re fighting to survive, scavenging for food amid the rubble. So, what future does that trauma leave the children of Palestine with?

And what future awaits Israelis who oppose the actions being done in their name?

Leaders from both Saudi Arabia and Israel have been working toward normalizing relations. The Saudi Kingdom, which supports Palestinian statehood, says it hopes normalization would ease Palestinians' lives. But during an address at the United Nations General Assembly, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said peace can only prevail in the Middle East when Palestinians have full, legitimate, and national rights. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition has been adamant in making no concessions to the Palestinians. So, where do Palestinians fit as Arab-Israeli relationships change?

Sun, 22 Sep 2024 - 1263 - Another Take: An English town’s take on rights of nature
Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on May 25th, 2023. None of the references from that time have been changed.
English rivers are polluted. Could giving them legal rights clean them up? In the town of Lewes, the answer to that question was yes. In February, the town’s council voted yes to a rights of river motion, the first in the UK. This motion is the first step in a two-year long journey to give the River Ouse legal representation and rights. The UK is facing heavy river pollution: most of them are not swimmable, and all failed a quality test in 2019. Since then, government testing of rivers has only plummeted. Lewes’ council now takes on the task of figuring out what exactly rights of a river should be.

Thu, 22 Aug 2024 - 1232 - Why a Gaza ‘ceasefire’ is not enough at Chicago’s DNC
The US is pushing a ‘decisive moment’ for ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas, as US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has wrapped up his latest Middle East trip. As US demands for an end to Israel’s war on Gaza are loud and clear outside the Democratic National Convention. But as the blame game continues over the war dragging closer to its eleventh month, and with tens of thousands of Palestinians killed, will the US exert enough influence on Israel to secure a lasting ceasefire?
