“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”

– Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, “Letter from Birmingham Jail”

 

“Those thoughts would be accumulated and later published as ‘Letter from Birmingham Jail’. The main sentiment Dr. King was expressing – – through about 7,000 words – – was a response to group of local clergy whom didn’t support the Birmingham Campaign. In the letter, Dr. King would state quote ‘For years now, I have heard the word WAIT. This WAIT has almost always meant NEVER.’ end quote”

Remade in America

Every year, Americans return nearly a trillion dollars’ worth of products. But once those items leave our hands, most of us never think about where they go—or what happens next. In Remade in America, hosted by Deborah Dull, Supply Chain Now takes listeners inside the little-known world of reverse logistics, where returned products are sorted, resold, recycled, repaired, or too often, discarded. What emerges is a complex and fragmented system struggling to capture more than $200 billion in lost value—along with critical materials that could power a more resilient, sustainable economy. This special feature explores the people, processes, and infrastructure behind returns, revealing both the challenges and the massive untapped opportunity hidden in plain sight. From outdated systems and disconnected networks to innovative approaches reshaping how products are recovered and reused, Remade in America uncovers what’s really happening after “return” is clicked.
