About The Regiment

Since 1966, my high school’s mascot has been The Rebels. In the wake of civil unrest following the police murder of George Floyd, many mascots and symbols of the Confederacy have been put on the chopping block. The Rebel is no exception. Join me as I find out how my tiny little hometown is connected to the big, wide world, especially in this historic moment of social movement amidst a global pandemic.

Intermission

I'm taking a wee break this week due to some other responsibilities that took up my time for podcasting. I hope to have an episode ready for you next week! In the meantime: - Check out some images of the mascot, old and new, at theregimentpodcast.blogspot.com. I’d love for you to leave a comment there and get some discussion going! - Leave a review on Apple Podcasts! - Share a memory or a question via voice message at anchor.fm/theregiment. I'll see you next week!

The Space Between Us

In this episode, we take a step back in time to the mid 1960s when my high school first opened its doors in September of 1966. Then we fast forward to get a glimpse of what’s happening now.

Time to Retire the Rebel?

Since 1966, at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, a high school in rural northwest Indiana voted to make their mascot the Rebel. Join me as I dig deeper into what may have motivated this decision and what its impact has been ever since. In this first episode, you'll hear from Brandon Storey, who authored the most recent petition to retire the Rebel only a week after protests were sparked around the globe following George Floyd's murder by a white police officer.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
