The Commentary Magazine Podcast - They’re Coming After Us in L.A. and N.Y.

A violent confrontation in West L.A. between Jews attempting to attend an event at a synagogue and Hamas supporters seemingly under the protection of the LAPD comes two days after a Jewish family is beset and beat up during a lower-school end-of-year celebration by another family shouting "Free Palestine"—and a day after Rep. Jamaal Bowman screams "you're gonna know who the F we are"  at the likelihood of his primary defeat on Tuesday.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Formation of the United Nations

In the midst of the Second World War, the Allied powers began planning ahead for what the post-war world was going to look like. 

The Legion of Nations had failed to prevent World War II. If they were to prevent another major war from breaking out in the 20th century, they needed something else. 

Learning from the lessons from the past, they created a new organization that would ultimately be run by the winners of the war. 

Learn more about how and why the United Nations was formed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Hard by a Great Forest’ is a novel about returning home decades after fleeing war

The story of Saba, the protagonist of Leo Vardiashvili's novel Hard by a Great Forest, is much like the author's own. A young boy flees the Soviet Republic of Georgia with his father and brother as the country is ravaged by a war. Decades later, when his father goes back to their homeland and promptly disappears, Saba must face his family's past – and immense loss – in an effort to find him. In today's episode, Vardiashvili tells NPR's Scott Simon about being separated from his own family, and the feeling of time-travel he felt when he finally made his way back to Georgia.
