    Mixing the final ep of #NPRShortWave with @maddie_sofia. First time I’ve ever typed “heartbreak” into our song library. There are not — nor will there ever be invented — words to express the depth of our love for you, duderino.

    As the picture of who is impacted by the coronavirus becomes clearer, it's evident that the pandemic is disproportionately affecting minorities — and that existing socioeconomic inequities like wage gaps were major factors in determining who gets sick. trib.al/X7KoQpS

    Today's #NPRShortWave is the coronavirus ep only @NPRCodeSwitch can deliver so perfectly. It addresses the xenophobia and racism that's underneath all those public health concerns. As you might expect ... this is not new. LISTEN: spoti.fi/2TKtgOB
