I don’t know how to get a transcript or know what Copilot is. How?

You can cut and paste a transcript on YouTube.

And what is wrong with that? Take my hypothetical example of a minimum speed regulation that inadvertently excludes the Amish from our public roads. There was no intent to discriminate against the Amish. In fact, no one was even thinking about them when the regulation was written. Yet such a regula...

Yes, it is extremely well documented that poor Black kids are frequently subject to criminalization for activities that are not criminalized for kids whose are White and middle class.

Thanks for the replies. I am aware of the filtered wikipedia file. I guess I'm old school enough that I'd rather see my children sitting on a chair with a book instead of looking at a screen. Maybe censorship wasn't the best word to use in an unqualified sense. I'm not too concerned about reading a...

Arguing against S&T for “reformed” and “Protestant” influence is equivalent to arguing against FotW for “Stone-Campbell” influence. The allegation might be true, but I don’t like how it’s some kind of automatic trump card, and if it is, we should be able to immediately write off a group that app...
