Rise of White Nationalism, Random Acts of Kindness Everywhere, Science Cafe: Data

What should people be doing if they 'don't' support the ideologies of men like Richard Spencer - the white nationalist involved with Charlottesville - who now wants to speak at Ohio State? On The Sound of Ideas - we'll talk with a reporter who has not only interviewed Spencer , but has tracked the movement over the years. We'll also get a primer on the community conversation on race The Sound of Ideas will be presenting in Akron. Then, it's our monthly Science Cafe segment. We have a lot of digital clutter and a local university may have a cure.
