Before each live episode of Michigan: We Need to Talk, we post a preview of the conversation here in the podcast feed, giving you time to hear the story, think about the issue, and get ready to join us when the phones open.
This week, Stephen Henderson talks with Peter Beinart, author of The Beinart Notebook on Substack and Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning.
They discuss the politics of fear: what fear does to us as citizens, what it does to democracy, and how it shapes the way communities see themselves and one another. The conversation also looks specifically at the fear many American Jews, Muslims, Arab Americans, Palestinians, Israelis, Iranians and immigrants are carrying in the wake of the war in Gaza and the conflict with Iran.
The full live show airs Thursday at 8 p.m. on Michigan Public, with guests Mónica Guzmán, journalist, speaker, and Senior Fellow for Public Practice at Braver Angels, and Yanna Krupnikov, political scientist and Professor of Communication and Media at the University of Michigan.
Listen live Thursday at 8 p.m. on Michigan Public and join the conversation.
