Show Notes

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: don’t scare me like that, colonizer.


Understanding the legacy of colonialism is a project relatively few Americans have undertaken — and most have done so only relatively recently, at that.


But 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’s one that is also increasingly hard to bring into schools — especially in places like Florida.


Barry Mauer of UCF joins us once again to argue for teaching the ongoing project of colonialism… in the name of stopping it.
