Everything Everywhere Daily - Quebec’s 1970 October Crisis

Canada has a reputation for being a rather low-key, friendly place. 

For the most part, this is true. It is a nice place to visit and is never usually that controversial. 

However, that hasn’t always been the case. Fifty years ago, Canadians faced the threat of extremism and terrorism, and it almost broke the country apart.

Learn more about Quebec’s October Crisis of 1970 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Fandom acts as an antidote for loneliness in ‘Y/N’

The title of Esther Yi's novel Y/N refers to an abbreviation for "your name" as it appears in a type of fan fiction where readers put themselves into a story. It's a way to inhabit another life, which is exactly what Yi's central character wants — but can never have. That tension drives the novel, as it explores loneliness, fandom, and K-Pop. Yi tells NPR's Ailsa Chang how it all fits together.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Poverty, By America’ argues America profits by keeping people poor

Why does poverty persist in one of the world's wealthiest countries? Because it's profitable, argues sociologist Matthew Desmond, in Poverty, By America. He tells NPR's Ayesha Rascoe why wealthier Americans benefit from forces that keep their fellow citizens from growing richer — forces like predatory financial services, stagnant wages, and rising housing costs.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Libraries

As soon as humans developed systems of writing, they faced a problem. What to do with all of the things that were written down? 

If you were going to document the lives of kings or tax records, then you need to be able to reference these details at some later date. 

The solution to the problem was the creation of repositories for documents. While they have changed dramatically over time, the same basic institutions are still with us today. 

Learn more about libraries and how they changed over time on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
