Maybe it’s that childhood rhyme about sticks and stones that make us underestimate the power of words to do more than break bones. On Friday’s Juneau Afternoon, why a license plate, stamped with hate, has Alaska talking.
Eva Gardner, John McKay, Libby Bakalar and Rebecca Braun offer their perspectives on two state personalized license plates with the words Fuhrer and 3Reich.
Some other highlights:
- Peter Micciche talks about the difficult cards he’s been dealt as Senate President. How he hopes to turn them into a winning hand.
- How a shared passion for ice cream — and free ice cream at that — brought two lawmakers on the opposite side of the political spectrum together. Marc Wheeler of Coppa, an handmade ice cream shop, offered them a deal they couldn’t refuse.
