Audio Poem of the Day - A Chair in Snow
By Jane Hirshfield
Everything Everywhere Daily - The Underground Railroad
Before the US Civil War, a group of abolitionists didn’t just sit around passively to wait for the end of slavery to arrive.
They took matters into their own hands. They set up a clandestine network that operated over multiple states to bring escaped slaves to freedom.
Their network wasn’t a top-down organization, which centrally organized everything. Rather, it was one of the earliest examples of a decentralized network where the members didn’t even know who else was involved.
Learn more about the Underground Railroad and how it brought thousands of people to freedom on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Audio Poem of the Day - The Undeniable Pressure of Existence

Everything Everywhere Daily - Timor-Leste (East Timor)
Located in the Indonesian Archipelago, it is one of the newest countries in the world, Timor-Leste, or, as it's sometimes known in English, East Timor.
While geographically very close, and pretty much surrounded by Indonesia, Timor-Leste has had a history very different from Indonesia.
Their histories diverged when they became colonized by different countries and came to a head in the late 20th century.
Learn more about Timor-Leste and its long painful path to independence on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
