This week we discuss the efforts of some anti-vaccination Facebook groups to avoid detection and removal. And, I recently spoke with Professor Megan Doherty Bea of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Professor Emily Taylor Poppe of the University of California-Irvine about their recent paper titled “Marginalized legal categories: Social inequality, family structure, and the laws of intestacy.” The paper is to be published in the Law and Society Review.

Segment 1 -- Megan Doherty Bea and Emily Taylor Poppe on “Marginalized legal categories: Social inequality, family structure, and the laws of intestacy.”

Segment 2 -- Individual and social conditions for the ascendance of opposition to vaccinations.
