Show Notes

Johns Hopkins professor and political scientist Yascha Mounk returns to the podcast to chronicle how postmodernism, postcolonialism, and critical race theory came together to create a well-intentioned but counterproductive set of ideas around identity and social justice. Yascha and Andrew discuss universal values, intersecting identities, and how separating people by identity may have unintended consequences that could bolster right-wing extremism.
