Folge 14: Protests and the Pandemic – A Conversation with HCA Student Terence Wride

Two months ago, the death of George Floyd sparked a
widespread protest movement against racial injustice and police
violence in the United States. While protests in many cities
subsided after a few weeks, they continued in a places like
Portland, Oregon, which has seen demonstrations every night since
May 29. This week’s podcast will take a closer look at these
longstanding and intensifying protests and the reaction of the
federal government. Anja Schüler talks to Terence Wride, who is a
native of Oregon and a student in the HCA’s Master of American
Studies program. He has just recently returned from the United
States, where he was involved in the protest movement.
