Everything Everywhere Daily - A History of the Crusades

Starting in the year 1096, the Christian kingdoms of the Latin Church united to retake religious sites in the Holy Land. This war was known as a crusade.

This was just the first in a series of nine official and several other unofficial crusades over a span of 200 years. 

These crusades impacted the kingdoms that took park, the Eastern and Western Christian churches, and relations between Christians, Muslims, and Jews in some ways that can still be felt today.

Learn more about the Crusades, the reason for them, and how they affected the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Mid-Air’ is a middle grade book about fitting in, friendship and grief

Middle school can be a rough time no matter what. But for Isaiah, the eighth grader at the heart of Alicia D. Williams' book Mid-Air, there are some added challenges: feeling like his affinity for rock music and nail polish makes him weird, grieving the loss of a close friend, and drifting further and further apart from his other best bud. In today's episode, Williams speaks with NPR's Andrew Limbong about the particular difficulties Black boys face to feel like they belong, and why — in the face of tragedy or discomfort — it can be even harder for them to connect with one another.

Everything Everywhere Daily - White Feather Girls (Encore)

The First World War wasn’t just fought on the fields of France and Belgium. There were lesser battles fought on the homefronts of the nations which were fighting. 

In the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth countries, this battle was fought on the streets of cities and towns between men who didn’t wear a uniform and women who tried to shame them into joining the military. 

These street conflicts got so bad that the governments eventually had to take action. 

Learn more about the White Feather Girls and how they shaped World War One on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
