First Fifteen
Debbie’s First Fifteen address the rising “I’m offended” sensitivities on American college campuses, as illustrated at Vanderbilt University in the treatment of an accomplished black woman professor Dr. Carol Swain. This matters to you, because these attitudes can and do emerge out of the college environment into the cultural mainstream.
Talking with the Talkers
WSBA’s Gary Sutton from York, Pennsylvania calls in to compare the political takes and temperature in his part of the country. Refugees and Hillary ae among the subjects discussed.
