Thank you for this carefully researched statistical analysis of the WAMC Roundtable's inexcusable history and ongoing practice of xenophobia, anti-Palestinian bias, and racism. I am so glad that what I experienced first hand and spoke out about as a panelist on the Roundtable in 2016 and 2017 is once again being brought to light.

Thank you so much, Barbara! Thank you also for calling out Joe Donahue and the station for this issue years ago. Journalists in our area seem afraid to speak out about their experiences with racism at WAMC. Thank you for modeling the courage we need.
