pe Folarin—author, intellectual, and executive director of the Institute for Policy Studies—they reflect on the enduring legacy of civil rights icon John Lewis and the idea of making "good trouble" in the fight for justice. Maggie and Tope also explore the concept of national budgets as moral documents, the dangers of normalizing "differentiated suffering," and the importance of recognizing our shared humanity in a deeply divided time. A listener’s impassioned email message on immigration sparks a nuanced exchange about border security, economic priorities, and moral responsibility. To close out the hour, sports reporter Mike Clemens brings the heat with a breakdown of the Brewers' high-energy season and highlights from the All-Star Game. Enjoy this blend of politics, principle, and play—an hour that reminds us of the power of honest dialogue and civic courage.
