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.
