World News of the Week (WNW) with Maya and Dad
Ten year old Maya and her dad, Jeremy, discuss major news events each week, hoping to inspire other families to discuss the big issues at their dinner tables, on their way to school or, frankly, whenever it works in their busy family lives.
We examine a major event, ask questions of each other and hope to find some answers... and raise more questions!

Kanye, The MTA and Rising Anti-Semitism - Guest, Sara Colb of the ADL
In recent years, there has been a explosion in Anti-Semitism, and that only accelerated after October 7th. During the Superbowl this year, Kanye West spent $8 million on anti-Semitic propaganda and, in our backyard, the Massachusetts Teacher's Association has been providing flagrantly anti-Semitic resources to educate its teachers on Israel and Gaza. We were so fortunate to have Sara Colb, Deputy Director of the ADL New England as our guest, to share her insights on the hot button issues and to help us understand both what is going on and what we can do to combat anti-Semitism.
