Whether disabled people can access public accommodations is a “public issue.” Racial and gender targeting by police and prison guards is a “public issue.” Whether trans people can safely enter and exit bathrooms is a “public issue.” But in each case, these debates about rights, safety, and access only apply to a segment of the population that has been systematically targeted and excluded from privileges others enjoy. I 1878 blev han udnævnt til guvernør over New Mexico, og fra 1881 til 1885 var han USA's ambassadør i Tyrkiet. People have lived like that for eons.

On that note, I would encourage Marketplace, or perhaps another employee of Marketplace with different views, to publicly rebut my points. I’d love to participate in that together. Maybe you’ve heard of disaster capitalism. I also communicated that I wanted some time to think about our conversation. “Diversity” is not enough to end systemic exclusion.

(NPR is, by the way, a separate organization — my employer was not NPR but American Public Media — APM.). On Monday morning, the VP of Marketplace fired me. In an attempt to be transparent and self-reflective, the reporter, Richard Faussett, says this: “There is a hole at the heart of my story about Tony Hovater, the white nationalist and Nazi sympathizer.

They said they wished I had brought the post to them first. This byline is mine, but I want my name removed. My integrity and courage are my most important assets as a journalist, and I don’t believe we can do our jobs well in this moment without rigorously maintaining both.
