Is the amount of #inequality in the U.S. enough to say it's not a democratic society so much as an oligarchic one? We'll compare our political and economic system with that of Indonesia with Northwestern Political Science professor Jeffrey Winters to learn more. lithub.com/jeffrey-a-wint…

I love how Nari has a Persian poetic reference for everything happening on WBEZ Worldview

Getting choked up listening to the last WBEZ Worldview on WBEZ ever

NOW: Worldview producers Julian Hayda and Steve Bynum are discussing their time on Worldview with Jerome, alongside longtime cultural correspondent Nari Safavi.

One of the highlights of my career WBEZ was getting to travel with the WBEZ Worldview team through Michigan highlighting the stories of people doing good in the world. I'm going to miss these guys. Last show is happening right now

WBEZ Worldview Northwestern Political Science An awesome way to start the final show. Thank you for 25 years!

WBEZ Worldview WBEZ .Julian Hayda right now is "completely out of words," and so am I. So am I. "To serve others is everything," he says, and that's exactly what WBEZ Worldview and @JeromeMcDonnell have done with every broadcast since 2001.

Our very own @JeromeMcDonnell is closing his WBEZ Worldview just the way he would: Thanking the community, highlighting the many, many people the show invited on the show because those people and groups were answering the global question: "How can I help?"

THANK YOU WBEZ Worldview @JeromeMcDonnell Steve Bynum Julian Hayda!

As Worldview ends its last noontime broadcast on WBEZ, producers Julian Hayda and Steve Bynum, alongside longtime culture contributor Nari Safavi, reflect on their time making the show happen every day. wbez.org/shows/worldvie…

"The world faces serious problems, but the thing that gives me hope is you," Jerome tells Worldview's listeners. "It's going to take some doing, but together we'll get to that better world our hearts know is possible." wbez.org/shows/worldvie…

Thank you, Jerome and WBEZ Worldview, for 25 years of service, for highlighting voices that aren't otherwise heard from in the US, and for giving me the space to grow as a journalist and as a person. Working on this show proved to me every day that "another world is possible."

#worldview what makes great radio great! Jerome McDonnell hasta luego, this is not goodbye wbez.org/shows/worldvie…

WBEZ Worldview Very sorry to see Worldview go. Kudos to Jerome McDonnell for so much fabulous work over the years. It was rare - and important on many levels - to have a public radio station devote an hour each weekday to locally-produced international affairs programming.

Our producer Julian Hayda had a story on Morning Edition today about how, in the eyes of Chicago’s Ukrainians, the Trump impeachment inquiry has a lot to do with the war in Eastern Ukraine’s #Donbas region.

Now, Extinction Rebellion Chicago organizers are blocking the intersection of Clark and Randolph. Listen on WBEZ
