Show Notes
<html><p>Cathy Reisenwitz's <a href="https://cathyreisenwitz.substack.com/" target="_blank">"Sex and the State"</a> is one of the handful of newsletters I consider indispensable. She writes, from what I'd label a radical liberal perspective, about culture and gender in ways I consistently find illuminating. And she was my guest on episode 50 of this show, on misogyny and the political divide, which remains one of my favorites. So when she and I were recently chatting about the future of the liberty movement, and what's needed in our authoritarian moment, I wanted to get her back on.</p><p>We discuss her early days in the liberty movement, why she left, what's brought her back, and what she learned in the intervening years. Then we discuss making the case for liberty, and why the right's focus on cultural issues has given it a leg up in persuading many Americans to its side. A strong case for liberty demands taking social issues seriously, and interrogating social patterns and their origins.</p><p><em>Produced by </em><a href="https://landryayres.com/?_bhlid=04c818b8847197e37f2ef125d751d30bc9dc7f56" target="_blank"></a><em><a href="https://landryayres.com/?_bhlid=04c818b8847197e37f2ef125d751d30bc9dc7f56" target="_blank">Landry Ayres</a></em><a href="https://landryayres.com/?_bhlid=04c818b8847197e37f2ef125d751d30bc9dc7f56" target="_blank"></a><em>.
