A new episode of On the Issues with Michele Goodwin is available now! 

As you’ve come to expect from our reporting here at Ms. magazine, On the Issues is a show that reports, rebels and tells it like it is. In each episode, Host Dr. Michele Goodwin will tackle a different, critically important and newsworthy topic, in conversation with the thought leaders of our time, including leaders and activists, elected officials, scholars and other special guests. The overarching theme of the podcast will center listeners’ concerns about advancing the promise of equality and rebuilding our nation.

A brand new episode—The Ms. Back to School Special—is available now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and MsMagazine.com. 

In our new episode, Dr. Goodwin and her guests focus on going back to school during the COVID-19 pandemic. The beginning of the 2020 school year is like none before it. To call it “difficult” is an understatement—and it’s difficult for all involved: for teachers, students, parents—especially mothers—and our colleges and universities, too. Economic strains on families are sky-high right now, as many families face eviction and affordable child care is out of reach. So where do we go from here?

Dr. Goodwin is joined this week by Representative Katherine Clark of Massachusetts; Fatima Goss Graves, CEO of National Women’s Law Center and co-founder of the TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund; and Randi Weingarten, president of the 1.7 million-member American Federation of Teachers, AFL-CIO.
