New Books in Native American Studies - J. Neuhaus, “Geeky Pedagogy: A Guide for Intellectuals, Introverts, and Nerds Who Want to Be Effective Teachers” (West Virginia UP, 2019)
The things that make people academics -- as deep fascination with some arcane subject, often bordering on obsession, and a comfort with the solitude that developing expertise requires -- do not necessarily make us good teachers. Jessamyn Neuhaus’s Geeky Pedagogy: A Guide for Intellectuals, Introverts, and Nerds Who Want to Be Effective Teachers (West Virginia University Press, 2019) helps us to identify and embrace that geekiness in us and then offers practical, step-by-step guidelines for how to turn it to effective pedagogy. It’s a sharp, slim, and entertaining volume that can make better teachers of us all.
Stephen Pimpare is Senior Lecturer in the Politics & Society Program and Faculty Fellow at the Carsey School of Public Policy at the University of New Hampshire.

Short Wave - Adversarial AI
Artificial intelligence might not be as smart as we think. University and military researchers are studying how attackers could hack into AI systems by exploiting how these systems learn. It's known as "adversarial AI." Some of their experiments use seemingly simple techniques. Dina Temple-Raston has been looking into this for her special series, I'll Be Seeing You.

The Daily Signal - Trump’s ‘Haters’ Are the Ones Breaking America, Says Kimberley Strassel
More and more Democrats have come out in favor of impeachment, but it’s worth remembering that some wanted to impeach him from Day 1. Those voices are often associated with "the Resistance." In today's episode, Kimberly Strassel of the Wall Street Journal argues that the Resistance is the truly destructive force in American politics—not President Trump. Strassel is author of the new book, "Resistance (At All Costs): How Trump Haters Are Breaking America."
We also cover the following stories:
- President Trump lifts sanctions on Turkey after announcing a permanent cease-fire in Syria
- GOP members stage sit-in outside impeachment inquiry proceedings
- 39 bodies found in England amid human trafficking concerns

Here are some key sources. I read a lot for this but many sources were redundant. The main two would be Jacobin and Daily Kos.
