Episode Details

Your Heard Tell for Wednesday, July the 20th, is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need as we take a deep dive into our rights, constitutional and otherwise. Our friend, frequent guest, attorney, and Ordinary Times Editor-in-Chief Emeritus Burt Likko returns for an in-depth, grown folk talk about what is and isn't a right under the law, constitutional rights, how the American system of rights came about from the Declaration of Independence to the US Constitution and Bill of Rights, to today's court battles and headlines. Burt explains not only the history and legal theory, but also some practical application from trending debates to how we should be talking about, and defending, everyone's rights to protect our own. Plus, we tale the current rise in "great replacement theory" claptrap from certain corners of news and social media and bring a historical example of how the sentiment is nothing new, the prejuidices haven't changed much, and some still relevent advice on how to deal with such animus from America's greatest president. Also, devestating flooding hits rural Virginia, we detail some charity and relief efforts to help out the folks of Buckhanan County. All that and more on this Wednesday edition of Heard Tell.
