This week, we’re airing the 100th episode of the ACLU’s podcast, At Liberty. The podcast came to life after Trump was elected in 2016, and has had quite a journey since then. We’ve talked to everyone from Megan Rapinoe, to Stacey Abrams, to Edward Snowden, to Tarana Burke. Activists, experts, artists, ACLU staff members, and celebrities have helped listeners understand how the civil rights and civil liberties issues of the day affect the lives of people across the U.S. To mark the occasion of our 100th episode, we took a look back at some of our favorite highlights. We hope you’ll listen with us — and stick around for the next 100 episodes to come.
