  • Americans are protesting the Trump administration. Do they work?

    Americans are protesting the Trump administration. Do they work?
    Apr 24 2025
    When you think of a successful protest movement, most Americans probably think of the American Civil Rights movement, and the March on Washington in 1963.

    Martin Luther King, Jr. standing behind a podium on the steps of the Lincoln memorial delivered his most famous speech and a line that would come to define the goals of the Civil Rights Movement.

    President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act just nine months after the March. A year after that Johnson signed the National Voting Rights Act of 1965.

    The quest for equality continues. In the decades since that bright summer day in August 1963, many other Americans have tried to use the model of protest to achieve their political goals.

    But do protests work?

  • Israel's changing story of an attack on rescue workers

    Israel's changing story of an attack on rescue workers
    Apr 23 2025
    On March 23, the death toll in Gaza surpassed 50,000 people killed by Israeli fire in the war with Hamas.

    This is the story of 15 people who were killed the same day.

    There were airstrikes across the territory, and in the south Israeli troops opened fire on a crew of emergency workers in ambulances and a firetruck.

    At first, the Israeli military said the vehicles were "advancing suspiciously" toward troops, "without headlights or emergency signals." It said the soldiers had eliminated a number of Hamas and Islamic Jihad militants.

    A recording unearthed days later told a different story ultimately leading the Israel to conduct an investigation. The results blamed an "operational misunderstanding" and cite professional failures.

    In more than 18 months of war – it's been rare for the Israeli Military to acknowledge failure.

    Coming up the story of what happened.

  • Maintaining stability is key to the economy. That's getting harder.

    Maintaining stability is key to the economy. That's getting harder.
    Apr 22 2025
    What does it take to keep the economy stable?

    That is a question that Jerome Powell considers every day in his role as Chair of the Federal Reserve. It's also a role that is meant to be done independent of politics.

    However, Powell's name has been making headlines, following a series of comments made by President Trump attacking Powell, after he warned that the President's aggressive tariff policies could hurt the economy.

    President Trump has been threatening to fire Powell, something he backed away from Tuesday afternoon.

    As NPR's Scott Horsley reports, all this is further rattling financial markets, making Jerome Powell's task of keeping the economy stable even harder to do.
