Introducing “The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop”

Grenada’s Black revolutionary leader, Maurice Bishop, was executed in a coup in 1983, along with seven others. The whereabouts of their remains are unknown. Now, The Washington Post’s Martine Powers uncovers new answers about how the U.S. fits into this 40-year-old Caribbean mystery. “The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop” is an investigative podcast that delves into the revolutionary history of Grenada, why the missing remains still matter and the role the U.S. government played in shaping the fate of the island nation.  Listen and follow the show here.

Listen to the first episode of “Field Trip”: Yosemite National Park

To hear the rest of the series, follow “Field Trip” wherever you listen.  California’s Sierra Nevada is home to a very special kind of tree, found nowhere else on Earth: the giant sequoia. For thousands of years, these towering trees withstood the trials of the world around them, including wildfire. Low-intensity fires frequently swept through groves of sequoias, leaving their cinnamon-red bark scarred but strengthened, and opening their cones to allow new seeds to take root. But in the era of catastrophic wildfires fueled by climate change, these ancient trees are now in jeopardy. And Yosemite National Park is on the front lines of the fight to protect them. In the first episode of “Field Trip,” Washington Post reporter Lillian Cunningham takes listeners inside this fabled landscape — from the hush of the Mariposa Grove to the rush of the Merced River — to explore one of America’s oldest and most-visited national parks. We’ll hear from Yosemite forest ecologist Garrett Dickman on the extreme measures he’s taken to protect iconic trees; from members of the Southern Sierra Miwuk working to restore Native fire practices to the park; and from Yosemite superintendent Cicely Muldoon about the tough choices it takes to manage a place like this. We’ll also examine the complicated legacies that conservationist John Muir, President Abraham Lincoln and President Theodore Roosevelt left on this land. The giant trees of Yosemite kick-started the whole idea of public land preservation in America. Join us as we visit the place where the idea of the national parks began — and ask what the next chapter might look like.  You can see incredible photos of Yosemite and find more on the national parks here [http://washingtonpost.com/travel?utm_source=podcasts&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=constitutional].  Subscribe to The Washington Post with a special deal for podcast listeners.

Introducing "Broken Doors"

No-knock warrants allow police to force their way into people’s homes without warning. What happens when this aggressive police tactic becomes the rule, rather than the exception?  "Broken Doors [https://www.washingtonpost.com/podcasts/interactive/2022/broken-doors/?utm_source=podcasts&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=constitutional]" is a new investigative podcast series from the Washington Post about how no-knock warrants are deployed in the American justice system - and the consequences for communities when accountability is flawed at every level. Hosted by Jenn Abelson [https://www.washingtonpost.com/people/jenn-abelson/?utm_source=podcasts&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=constitutional] and Nicole Dungca [https://www.washingtonpost.com/people/ndungca/?utm_source=podcasts&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=constitutional].
