On Thursday's show: The timeline is set for how school vouchers will roll out in Texas beginning in February -- except that timing might only benefit parents who could already afford to send their kids to private school. Houston Chronicle reporter Isaac Yu explains why.
Also this hour: Artificial intelligence is shaping our future, but could it also reinforce oppression? Ahead of a lecture this afternoon at the University of Houston, Safiya Umoja Noble explores how bias shows up in AI and what it means for marginalized communities.
And we talk with members of the Drunk Shakespeare Company, which has set aside its usual celebration of The Bard's works to present a production tailor-made for October: Drunk Dracula.
