Investigative News Radio with host Dennis Bernstein
Today on Flashpoints, activists from the Arab Resources & Organizing Center discuss the effort to have Vietnamese and Arabic taught in San Francisco K-12 schools. Then, Nora Barrows-Friedman hosts the Electronic Intifada podcast, featuring an interview with The Nation's Dave Zirin about a recent tour NBA players took to Israel, funded by Sheldon Adelson, to protest the BDS movement. Finally, as hostilities between Turkey and the PKK turn deadly, Flashpoints takes an in-depth look at the region with scholar and professor Edmund Ghareeb.
