Press Play with Madeleine Brand
Local Muslims React to Trump, 'Healthy' Food and Defending Selfies
Southern California Muslim reaction to Donald Trump. Should the FDA change its definition of “healthy” food? And guests defend football and the selfie.
By Madeleine Brand • • 51m ListenToday we start by hearing from the Southern California Muslim community’s reaction to Donald Trump’s campaign trail rhetoric.
Then, a look at conservative girls’ schools in the Middle East, like the one reportedly attended by San Bernardino shooter Tashfeen Malik.
Next, we discuss a controversy that’s cropped up over the meaning of the word “healthy.” The makers of Kind nutrition bars have one interpretation, and the federal government another.
And, an author and journalist talks about his new book, which defends football amid talk of concussions and other issues.
Finally, we examine the transformative power of the selfie; sometimes, selfies are more than exercises in narcissism.
