- Locus Focus: Airs 11am daily Saving Salmon, Saving Us Salmon are the principal iconic species here in the Pacific Northwest, but once salmon were iconic for all northern latitude countries around the world. As we watch the once abundant salmon runs dwindle in the few remaining places where they have thrived over the past century, we are actually witnessing the same processes that previously wiped out salmon runs across Northern Europe and the American Northeast—the impacts of overfishing and industrial pollution. On this episode of Locus Focus, we talk with Mark Kurlansky, author Salmon: A Fish, the Earth, and the History of a Common Fate, about how the fate of salmon is intimately connected with the fate of all life on this planet.
- Paw’d Defiance Airs SMWF 7-8 AM Violence, Sexuality, and Black Women UW Professor Carolyn West has spent her career looking at issues affecting Black women. In her early career, she focused on domestic violence and how larger forces like historical trauma play a role in domestic violence perpetrated against Black women. In this episode, we talk about West’s research into intimate partner violence. We also talk about her work as an expert witness in court cases involving intimate partner violence. Finally, West talks about how Black women are portrayed in the media and what impact these tropes and stereotypes have on Black women and on society as a whole.
