Jul 8 2012 On this week's show, we discuss Long Island Congressman Peter King's latest round of anti-Muslim hearings; professor Moustafa Bayoumi and CAIR's Cyrus McGoldrick provide the analysis. We then speak with Riham Barghouti of Adalah-NY about an important victory in the movement for boycott, divestment and sanctions: the decision by retirement fund giant, TIAA-CREF, to remove Caterpillar from three of its socially responsible funds. And finally, we go back to 1914, the raucous and revolutionary year so eloquently portrayed in Thai Jones's new book More Powerful Than Dynamite: Radicals, Plutocrats, Progressives and New York's Year of Anarchy.
