 Welcome to Human Rights in a New Key!

Our podcast centers student perspectives and voices, including contemporary student voices at UChicago and beyond, placing them alongside and in dialogue with those of activists, academics, and other human rights experts. Several of the episodes feature students, and all our episodes have passed through the hands of UChicago student co-hosts, editors, and reviewers, with the Pozen Center for Human Rights our project’s primary supporter. We hope to showcase a breadth of human rights issues, while simultaneously tying them together through lived experience and personal stories of our guests.Copyright Human Rights

  • Re-integrating Ex-militants, Postwar Colombia

    Re-integrating Ex-militants, Postwar Colombia
    Mar 6 2023
    In this episode, Manaeha and Matt speak with Erin McFee and Arturo Gutierrez de Velasco. Erin is the Principle Investigator of Trust after Betrayal (https://www.trustafterbetrayal.org/), a project that examines interpersonal trust among violence-affected individuals in communities where actors from all sides of the conflicts live together. Their multi-sited ethnography spans across former members of non-state armed groups in Somalia, Colombia, Mexico, El Salvador, and military veterans in the United States. They focus on Colombia, which is where Arturo, a 3rd year student at the college, did research over the summer. As a Pozen human rights intern, he helped conduct interviews with ex-militants in Colombia. They discuss what the Trust after Betrayal Project is, why it is important, and the nuance and complexity that goes into interviewing and researching ex-militants. Let’s hear from them!

  • Bahai Solidarity in the Face of State-led Persecution

    Bahai Solidarity in the Face of State-led Persecution
    Feb 27 2023
    In this episode, Manaeha and Matt interview Roja Fazaeli and a member of the Baha'i community. We will be referring to him as “A”, as he has requested to remain anonymous in light of the possible threat to himself and his family this interview might pose.
    Roja Fazaeli is an Associate Professor in Islamic Civilisation, Near & Middle Eastern Studies at Trinity College Dublin. A is a refugee of the Baha'i community living in the US. We are going to provide an overview of what the Baha'i faith is and who its people are. We start with an explanation of Bahaism and its emergence in Iran, then we go to why the Iranian state sees the Bahai as such a fundamental threat to its regime, still acknowledging that the state is different from its people, and there is hope for Baha'is especially within the younger generations to resist anti-baha’i propaganda. We end with ways the Bahai create community in their daily lives, a way they can resist the horrible oppression and constant persecution they face. Now this episode might contain a lot of jargon that you might not be familiar with, but we encourage you to push yourself to stick around anyway. The least we can do is listen and validate the struggles the Baha’i community is facing.
