Presenting: Overcoming Extremism

This week we’re sharing a new podcast series called Overcoming Extremism, supported by the Anti-Defamation League. The series is hosted by former Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer and produced by Elliot Majerczyk. Episode 4: Amy Spitalnick fights to bankrupt the white supremacist movement. Later in the show: What would it take to induce compassion for your most sworn enemy? That’s exactly what Daniel Rothbart is trying to find out. He’s one of the directors of the “laboratory for peace” program in Rondine, Italy, which brings together students from conflict zones all over the world. Plus: When Howard Sanborn arrived in Hong Kong to teach Democracy in the West, his students were already engaged in fierce street protests for their own democracy.
