In the aftermath of Trump sweeping to power, I thought it would be valuable to return to an interview I conducted with Jack Schneider and Jennifer Berkshire in the aftermath of the 2020 election. In that conversation, we looked back at education under the first Trump presidency and looked ahead to education during the Biden administration. This will be good context to remember as we prepare for Trump 2.0. Next week I’ll return with a new interview with Michael Apple about what a second Trump presidency might mean for education over the next four years. -- Today we take stock of public education in the United States after the 2020 election. With me are Jack Schneider and Jennifer Berkshire. You may know Jack and Jennifer from their education podcast called Have You Heard, which you should definitely check out. They’ve also recently co-written the book A Wolf at the schoolhouse door: The dismantling of public education and the future of school, which traces the war on public education in America. They argue that we should be watching the changes at the state level after the recent election. Jack Schneider is an assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell and Jennifer Berkshire is a freelance journalist. They co-host the podcast Have You Heard.

Today we air the next episode of Flux. Chundou Her’s research is on Hmong student experiences at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. It’s significant that UW-Madison is a predominantly white institution in the Midwest of the United States because the Hmong student experiences that Chundou explores is of racism in all its forms – from stereotypical ideas about model minorities, to its links to sexism, and to the many microaggressions common on campus. In this episode, Chundou imagines multiple, parallel worlds where layers of universes simultaneously fold into each other. This may be interpreted as a form of dissociation, but it could also be understood as a space for collective healing. https://freshedpodcast.com/flux-her/ -- Today’s episode was created, written, and produced by Chundou Her.

Today we launch a new project at FreshEd called The Thinking Ear. The Thinking Ear is a collection of episodes produced by you, offering a sonic space to share ideas on education worldwide. Think of it as an audio journal. If you’re interested in developing your own podcast episode about your research, please get in touch. The Thinking Ear is open for submissions. We will offer support to develop your idea into a podcast before airing it on the FreshEd platform. We think a space for anyone to contribute a podcast episode is important because sonic productions expand our understanding. Research is no longer confined to niche journal articles or shared in half-empty conference rooms. Podcasts encourage us to think both analytically and creatively about research and increase our public impact. We want to democratize podcast creation by offering our listeners opportunities to make their voices heard. So welcome to The Thinking Ear and I hope many of you will consider making your own episodes in the future. To kick things off Jordan Corson tells a short story about a particular understanding of the idea of universal education, composed in the style of writer Jorge Luis Borges.
