Dead Pundits Society

We're currently in between Season 1 and Season 2, so we've decided to take the opportunity to reproduce the "Anti-Essentialism Series" from the summer of 2017 in a more linear and coherent fashion. Old and new listeners, alike, will benefit from this presentation that will unfold over the next week, which develops a critical analysis of the relationship between capitalism and the creation of marginalized identities (race, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, etc.) Episode 3 features an interview on the "Black (Mis)leadership Class." Joining me this week to expand on my recent episodes on race and class is author and political commentator, Pascal Robert. We talk about a whole range of issues: the Haitian Revolution, black nationalism, racial uplift politics, whiteness studies, race management, racial disparity statistics, and, finally, Pascal rips into Ta-Nahesi Coates. Robert is *fire* on the mic, so you’re not going to want to miss this episode! Check out Pascal’s work for the Black Agenda Report: www.blackagend
