Shame and the Law with Martha Nussbaum
from KUOW's Weekday February 20, 2008
A lawmaker in Washington State proposes fluorescent yellow license plates as a punishment for drunk driving. A judge in Massachusetts forces a college kid to stand in front of a police station wearing a toga. Are these so called 'shaming laws' making a comeback? What are the origins of these laws? Should an emotion like shaming play a major role in our legal system today? Do shaming laws work? We'll take up these question and more this hour with legal thinkers including Martha Nussbaum of the University of Chicago.

Historian Thomas Cahill
from Bill Moyers Journal (Video) | PBS December 28, 2007
Bill Moyers interviews best-selling historian Thomas Cahill in a far ranging interview that takes viewers from the Coliseum in Rome to death row in Texas and examines what our attitudes toward cruelty can tell us about who we are as Americans. "However difficult it may be the only way you are going to gain closure is to let go of your hatred" says Cahill, who is best known for his The Hinges of History series of books, which includes the widely read How the Irish Saved Civilization. Cahill says his books ask how we became the people we are: "It's human cruelty that is evil. We're not willing to acknowledge that this is inside of us. It's there," he says. "I'm really interested in what's good about us."
