  • What is the Department of Education?
    During his campaign, Donald Trump promised several times that he would dismantle the US Department of Education. So today we wanted to explore what such a dismantling would look like, as well as what the DoED does in the first place. Turns out, while the Department does an awful lot of things, there is much for which it is criticized that it does not do. Taking us through its creation, its history, and its powers is Adam Laats, professor of Education at Binghamton University. Link to our episodes on School Lunch here and here.And here are some good resources for anyone who wants to know a little more about Jonestown. My 8th grade report is, sadly, unavailable.https://www.npr.org/2017/04/11/523348069/nearly-40-years-later-jonestown-offers-a-lesson-in-demagogueryhttps://www.nytimes.com/1979/11/18/archives/jonestown-the-survivors-story-jonestown.html   Want our new "Civics is my cup of tea" mug?
