NPR's Book of the Day - A new book shows how the South – and its history – shapes our nation
Frye Gaillard and Cynthia Tucker are old enough to remember Jim Crow in the South. But they recognize the part of the country they grew up in for both its flaws and its significant role in the history of the country. In their new book, The Southernization of America, Tucker and Gaillard make an argument about how the South shapes the nation's political and cultural landscape – for good and bad. In an interview with Debbie Elliott on Weekend Edition Saturday, they discuss the South's problematic contradictions and pushback now by some against learning about them.

The Gist - ALL The Colors Of The Rainbow (Except One)
The Pride flag is synonymous with inclusion…unless, of course, you are the color indigo. Confused? That’s why we’ve convened another Vexillology Corner with Ted Kaye, secretary of the North American Vexillological Association and the author of Good Flag, Bad Flag. Plus, the Texas Senate committee on the Uvalde shooting convenes, as the US House of Representatives January 6th commission continues. And in the Spiel, a misleading CNN report purports to find massive racial disparities in hundreds of heat-related deaths, but the numbers just aren’t there.

Lost Debate - Ep 56 | Sentient AI, Self-Driving Safety, Rural WiFi, Location Data, Twitter & Society
Ravi, Cory, and Rikki jump into #TechTuesday (patent pending) with a big question: what constitutes sentience, and does Google’s AI chatbot LaMDA pass the test? Then we turn to the push to regulate the booming business of location data, and check in on the state of self-driving car safety. Finally, we wrap up with a discussion on the lagging effort to bring workable WiFi access to rural America, and the core demographic that dominates political Twitter.
