Derek and Nathan speak to Dr. Steven Thrasher about his activism against the genocide in Gaza and the McCarthyist repression he has been subjected to in response by both the state and his employer. We also delve into his work on Covid and his newest book project. Steven Thrasher is the inaugural Daniel H. Renberg Chair of social justice in reporting (with an emphasis on issues relevant to the LGBTQ community) and an assistant professor of journalism at the Northwestern Medill School of Journalism. He is also author of The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality and Disease Collide and the forthcoming book The Overseer Class: Representation as Repression.    If you are an academic, journalist, or health professional, please consider signing this letter of support for Steven in light of the targeting happening at Northwestern.    The End of Sport Podcast is a proud member of the Harbinger Media Network, your left podcast community.
