Labor Day Special: Student Loan Forgiveness & Adjuncts in Higher Education

In this Labor Day Special, I tackle the issue of student loan forgiveness and the over-usage of adjunct faculty in higher education.  This episode is specifically geared toward questions by my conservative friends who are concerned about being asked to use their hard earned tax dollars to bail out someone else's student loans.   Please also support my good friend, Dr. Lucas Mather's podcast, The Republican Professor, on whose show I have appeared twice and which sparked my desire to talk on this topic today.   For Part I of our talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmdTh2QiS9o For Part II of our talk:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iMFlb9J-qA&t=2058s

S02, E03 Second Interview with Student Aung Khant About Myanmar's Military Coup (March 9, 2021)

In this episode of my webcast, I conduct a follow-up interview my  student, Aung Khant (name altered for his safety), who is a Myanmar  national, about the recent coup by the military junta in Myanmar, which  placed head of state, Aung San Suu Kyi under arrest and challenged the  recent democratic elections based upon false claims of election fraud.   There are now massive protests in Myanmar against the military coup, all  of which are peacefully executed, but the military has engaged in  violent and tyrannical tactics against its own people, much like  organized crime.  My student, Aung, talks about how the Myanmar people  have very little in the way of resources, or even weapons to defend  themselves against a corrupt regime that is now killing people.  The  military already waged a war against one of its ethnic minorities, the  Rohingya, but now it is perpetrating crimes against the majority of its  citizens as a way to maintain its power.  But the people of Myanmar are  very passionate about restoring their democracy and are well organized  even without clear cut leaders of their movement.  They are asking for  the world's attention and help in restoring their democracy and  restoring the peace that was taken from them by a corrupt military  regime that has benefited only a few individuals.     Please view the following resources:    https://www.cfr.org/interview/how-mya... https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/02/16/...   Please like, subscribe, and follow the hashtags:  #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar #SaveMyanmar   Thank you,  Dr. Arik Greenberg www.DrArikGreenberg.com
