The week after America celebrated the 4th of July, SPOT 127 embarked on the Freedom Project: a podcast workshop in partnership with Dr. Wanda Tucker, Rio Salado College's faculty chair for Psychology, Philosophy and Religious Studies. The workshop was supported by a grant from the MAXIMUS Foundation. Students explored such diverse topics related to the freedom as memes and social media, self-imprisonment, dress codes and finding one's own happiness. They shared their podcasts at a Listening Party at SPOT 127 East on Friday, July 14.
