Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy. Once more we take up religion and politics, this time a conversation about President Donald Trump’s attacks on Pope Leo XIV—the first successor of St. Peter from the United States—mostly, though not only, over the pope’s pleas for peace as Trump rages war against Iran. Why is the incredibly unpopular Trump going after the beloved pontiff? Why does Trump’s Catholic vice president, J.D. Vance, argue that Leo should stay out of politics and stick to morality, as if politics was not irreducibly a moral enterprise? Who is Pope Leo, and what seem to be his priorities for his papacy? How to make sense over the arguments about just-war theory that Leo’s various statements about war and peace—notably, that God does not hear the prayers of those who wage war—have generated? We answer all these questions, and more!

A satellite exhibit opens at the Green Lake Branch gallery on April 26. “Living with Conviction: Sentenced to Debt for Life in Washington State” displays around - Media Literacy for a Young WorldThis May, Soman Chainani returns to the scene with his first original novel in over ten years. Young World, published by Penguin Random House, is a political thriller set in the not too distant future where countries around the globe are on the brink of collapse. Chainani blurs the lines between fact and fiction on and off the page to make us all think: Wait, is this really happening? In recent conversations with book professionals in my neighborhood, the question surrounding Young World’s release is often, “How do we market this?” It’s a question I have spent a number of weeks ruminating on, wondering why this question is at the forefront of everyone’s mind. Is it that Chainani’s other books were marketed for middle grades and this is his first foray into YA literature? Is it that this book toes the line of what we, as adults, think is acceptable… The post Media Literacy for a Young World appeared first on ALSC Blog.
