TranScript: Trans Issues in the Media

2M ago

Chances are whatever you know about trans issues in education came from reporters who cover the issue. The best education reporting starts with students and works its way out to larger issues.

TranScript: Being The Parent Of A Trans Student

3M ago

—

It’s hard enough being the parent of a middle school student. But now your child comes out as trans and you have to navigate the school district bureaucracy to make sure your child is safe.

TranScript: How Did We Get Here?

There are few education topics more heated than transgender students. Should teachers use preferred pronouns? What restroom should trans kids use?

The Man From Russell: Becoming Bob Dole

1+ y ago

—

We start this season of Archiver in 1960 on the streets of Russell, Kansas—right there on the plains about half-way between Kansas City and Denver. It was a railroad town and an oil town but, for our purposes, it’s Bob Dole’s town. His first campaign for federal office featured four girls in homemade skirts called the Bob-O-Links, singing on the st…

The Man From Russell: Mr. Dole Goes To Washington

1+ y ago

—

By 1960 Bob Dole had his sights on a much bigger political stage. After his one term in the Kansas Legislature and five terms as Russell County attorney, there was a shake-up in the western Kansas political landscape starting in 1954. Dole saw his opening. There was a bitter three-way fight for the Republican nomination for Congress from western Ka…

The Man From Russell: Here Comes The Hatchet Man

1+ y ago

—

When Bob Dole was sworn in as a member of the House of Representatives in 1961 it didn’t take the freshman congressman from western Kansas long to attack the Democrats. He opposed almost everything the new Kennedy Administration wanted. In March 1961, he voted against extending unemployment benefits. Democrats in Kansas immediately labeled him a re…

The Man From Russell: Ambition

1+ y ago

—

The 1964 election was a disaster for Republicans. Lyndon Johnson crushed Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater with 61% of the vote. Goldwater only carried six states. It was the biggest landslide since Franklin Roosevelt crushed Kansas Gov. Alf Landon in 1936. But, out in western Kansas, Bob Dole was bucking the trend as he sought another term in the House…

The Man From Russell: The Move To The Middle

1+ y ago

—

After Bob Dole’s victory in 1966 many political observers believe he started to move toward the middle. Hunger became an issue that Dole got deeply involved in. CBS showed the documentary “Hunger in America” on May 21, 1968 and it helped profoundly change how the U-S government dealt with hunger. It would also help solidify Bob Dole’s moderation. N…

The Man From Russell: One Moment

1+ y ago

—

In his first run for Senate in 1968, Bob Dole had no trouble winning. He crushed Gov. William Avery in the Republican primary with 68% of the vote and in the general election he beat Democrat William I. Robinson with 60%. It probably didn’t hurt that Tonight Show regular and Kansas City jazz singer Marilyn Maye sang his campaign jingle, a far cry f…

The Man From Russell: The National Stage

1+ y ago

—

On August 20th, 1976 the new ticket of Gerald Ford and Bob Dole made their first campaign stop in Dole’s hometown of Russell, Kansas. It was the night before the two were nominated at the Republican National Convention in Kansas City. It was also Bob Dole Day in Russell, 95 degrees with a 20-mile-an-hour wind that can make the plains feel like a co…

The Man From Russell: The Runs For The White House

1+ y ago

—

After losing as Gerald Ford’s 1976 vice presidential running mate, Dole made another run for the White House in 1988. It was a crowded GOP field that included Ronald Reagan’s vice president, George H.W. Bush. The campaign started well enough with Dole winning in Iowa. But Bush started running ads in New Hampshire saying Dole helped raise taxes, and…

The Man From Russell: Legacy

1+ y ago

On November 8th, 1996 just three days after Bob Dole got pasted by Bill Clinton for president, he walked on stage at the Late Show with David Letterman to a standing ovation. There has never been a politician just as comfortable and formidable marking up legislation as they are on late night TV. He joked that he was making $200 for the appearance a…
