Zócalo Public SquareDoes America Really Want to Be a Nation of Immigrants? with Jia Lynn YangThe year 1924 was a watershed in American immigration. A victory for the eugenics movement, the Johnson-Reed Act established race-based quotas that succeeded in limiting the entry of Jews and Catholics from Southern and Eastern Europe, as well as strengthening restrictions already in place barring the entry of Asians and Africans.

By giving preference to family reunification and skilled workers, the legislation changed the demographics of the country, making it less European and less...2021-05-211h 08

海马星球 Seahorse Planet当真爱来到中国中国人，至少还有日本人，在19世纪之前是不会说“我爱你”的。
他们会说风清水媚，月色美好，思念远人，“我可以为你去死”，等等，但“爱”这个一对一的、在两个独立个体之间的概念，却是个相对新鲜的东西。
本期海马星球请到了在香港大学教授性别研究与宗教学的郭婷，跟我们探讨了现代的“爱”在中国的演变过程，它如何从传统社会中解放了女性，却又在现代家庭中遮蔽了对女性的奴役。
我们还谈到了英国演员卷福为男女演员同工同酬做出的仗义之举，和《权力的游戏》里复杂的女性角色。
节目中提到的人名、著作和节目等：
艾伦·图灵（1912年6月23日－1954年6月7日）：英国数学家、逻辑学家，被称为计算机科学之父，人工智能之父。因同性恋倾向而被英国政府迫害。
