Who had school busing in the betting pool for poll-moving Democratic presidential debate controversies? And yet here we are.
Well, if it’s racial discord and school choice that you want to talk about, then that’s exactly what you’ll get on today’s Editors’ Roundtable edition of the Reason Podcast. Katherine Mangu-Ward, Nick Gillespie, Peter Suderman, and Matt Welch talk about their own personal histories with school integration, preferred remedies for helping disadvantaged students receive a better education, and what these debates mean for the modern Democratic Party.
Also under discussion today are shake-ups to the Beltway foreign policy consensus, the beating of Quillette writer Andy Ngo, whether it’s healthy for restaurants to deny service to Trumpites, and why Yoko Ono was the most underrated Beatle.
