In this episode of the Tufts Daily Podcast, we focus on the university’s attempts to solve the lack of available on-campus housing by converting campus-owned properties into dorms.

After, we talk to Shane Woolley, co-founder of the Tufts Housing League, about the group’s concerns about the project, as well as alternative approaches to making on-campus housing more available to students.

The history of the land in the United States is one of ERASURE; of the genocide of indigenous people, and of the legacies of people of color using, nourishing and shaping the environment. I’ll trace how that forced absence leads to a lack of “diversity” in parks today. Why are only white people (check out the Sierra Club, Nature Conservancy, Environmental Defense fund) the most visible experts and stewards of nature? What stories are we telling about people of color in our parks? The experience of nature is far from neutral. Produced by Shirley Wang…
Remember when Cheryl Strayed in Wild went on a solo trip and didn’t acknowledge how Whiteness had a lot to do with her success? Remember that? Well, going outdoors alone for 3 months isn’t the only way to earn your nature-lovers badge... This episode is about paradigm shifts — how can we change the conversation about outdoor recreation, in a way that recognizes how people from a multitude of backgrounds engage with the outdoors? In this episode, we talk to environmentalists who don’t like hummus, environmentalists who fight for justice, and families who love camping. None of these people fit the typical 'environmentalist' description. Produced by Shirley Wang…
More than half of outdoor enthusiasts today make over 75k per year. Episode two is about how storytelling is nice, but we need the monies to get to the park itself. I talk to Kay Wang, of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area Outreach team, and take a trip to the John Muir Woods myself. Produced by Shirley Wang…

**CW: Gun violence, discussion of Islamophobia** Dance and Drama Professor Kareem Khubchandani reads “In Praise of Latin Night at the Queer Club” by Justin Torres. The Orlando nightclub massacre on June 12th, 2016 was an assault on brown and black bodies in an LGBTQ scene. It disrupted what had been a sacred space, somewhere people could go to feel far away from “white, straight America.” Every year, Kareem reads this piece to his Intro to Queer Studies class -- because for him, being in the swirling and bumping club atmosphere is about “really living up to a kind of beauty that you believe you deserve.” When you hear the cadence and rhythm of Torres’ piece, you can almost feel that irresistible energy. In the final episode of season 2, we talk to Kareem about Orlando, drag queens, and care packages from his mom. Produced by Shirley Wang, Jenna Fleischer, and Bobby Familiar…
