  • Rethink's Radio Book
    THE RADIO BOOK ReThink Media’s guide to the public affairs programs you need to know 2016 Edition The Radio Book ReThink Media’s guide to the public affairs programs you need to know 2016 - First Edition The research for this book was undertaken by ReThink Media staff, fellows, and interns between 2013 and 2015. Although we made every effort to speak directly with a producer of each show we list, we were not always successful. The “Features” tags included with many entries are complete to the best of our abilities—but some shows lack them when we could not be sure of a feature. Similarly, pitching intel is available for shows with which we were able to make contact. We would like to acknowledge Alyssa Goard, Katherine O’Brien, Daniel Steiner, and Lisa Bergstrom, who each had a big hand in bringing this project to completion.

  • Latinos: Political Participation? Mobilization? Or Silenced & Set Aside?
    Department of Latin American and Latino Studies and In the Thick Present: Latinos: Political Participation? Mobilization? Or Silenced & Set Aside? DePaul University, Cortelyou Commons, 2324 N. Fremont Street, Chicago, IL 60614 May 11, 2017 (9:30am to 1:30pm) Before the 2016 election, everyone was predicting that the country's Latino population had arrived. But by 2017, during some of the most tumultuous months in recent American political history, Latinos are barely being mentioned in the national political conversation. Why? Join In The Thick co-hosts Maria Hinojosa and Julio Ricardo Varela as they lead a day that will provide deep and honest insight about Latinos, intersectionality and political power. 9:30-9:45 Introduction to the Program (Lourdes Torres and Maria Hinojosa) Where Does It All Go Next? (9:45-10:45) Days before the 2016 election, the media was calling it: Latinos were showing up to the polls in record numbers. Donald Trump's anti-Mexican comments had awoken a "sleeping giant." But was it true and does it even matter now, during a time of travel bans and ramped-up deportations? How does the Latino community forge ahead, and is it time to look at ways to ally with other groups who have also been affected by the president's tough rhetoric? Maria Hinojosa and Julio Ricardo Varela, moderators Panelists: Enrique Acevedo (Anchor of the award-winning Noticiero Univision late-night edition) Esther Cepeda (Nationally syndicated opinion columnist) Will the US Ignore Latinos Now? (11:00am-12:00) There was a brief time in 2016 where many in the Latino community felt "the moment" had arrived.
