Rye Barcott joins Rep. Crenshaw for a candid conversation about Crenshaw's recent primary election loss, the pressures facing members of Congress, the rise of social media-driven politics, the tension between effective governance and outrage-driven politics, and why courage remains one of the most important – and increasingly rare – qualities in American leadership.   Rye Barcott is a Marine Corps veteran, entrepreneur, and the CEO of With Honor  – an organization responsible for helping elect dozens of veterans to Congress over the past decade.

Eric Newman interviews Kimberlé Crenshaw about her memoir Backtalker: An American Memoir. One of the most influential legal scholars of the past half century, Crenshaw is widely known for developing the analytical framework of intersectionality and pioneering the field of critical race theory. In Backtalker, she reflects on the personal experiences, intellectual influences, and era-defining cultural events that shaped her thinking about prejudice, power, and the law. In this conversation, Crenshaw talks about her family, traces the conflicts and inequalities that continue to define public life and the law in the United States, and considers how we might face the racial, sexual, and gendered retrenchment in the present.

The far right holds power in the US, inflaming tension along racial lines. ICE agents terrorise the streets, while Black history is erased from school curricula. In the UK too, Nigel Farage's far right party Reform is on the ascendancy, riding a tide of anti-immigrant sentiment that he himself helped to stoke. Our guest on Downstream this week is Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw, civil rights advocate and legal scholar. Crenshaw is known for coining the term ‘intersectionality' to describe the ways different forms of discrimination combine or intersect, and is a leading figure within the field of Critical Race Theory.  Born into segregation, her new memoir Backtalker (2026) tells her life story, tracking 60 turbulent years of American history in the process. How have the forces of race, class and gender shaped Crenshaw's own life? What is Critical Race Theory – the academic field Crenshaw founded – really about? Was Kamala Harris' presidential campaign a failure because she was a weak candidate, or because she was a victim of the forces of misogynoir? And in these times of rising fascism, should progressives put their efforts into tackling inequality based on race, or class?

In filmmaker Belinda M. Wilson's video introduction to the BLACK MAMBA DVD, she claims the film is inspired by a real life encounter with a mysterious woman at Wilson's own family reunion who never aged, could never prove her relation to the family, and was suspected of putting curses on people she disagreed with. This reverence for the supernatural forces that guide our day to day lives is powerfully captured in BLACK MAMBA, one of the most impressive DIY auteur films we've ever seen, that deserves to be seen by all film lovers who prioritize work that exists outside of the Hollywood machine. The film was officially released by Bleeding Skull as part of a three film compilation called "Backyard Bloodbaths." We highly recommend purchasing this film via that collection, but also humbly request that BLACK MAMBA be eventually given its own release with a focus on Wilson and her career. BLACK MAMBA stars writer/director Wilson as the titular character, a powerful and evil witch living in an ordinary house in Los Angeles's Crenshaw neighborhood. Structured like a horror anthology, the film revolves around different characters showing up to Black Mamba's door requesting spells and potions to fulfill their earthly needs. The spells never go quite right, mostly due to the recipient's pride, and the consequences are intense and disturbing. We notice this structure is typical to the "black magic" thrillers emerging from the Hong Kong film industry in the 1970s and 80s, where humans delve into magical worlds beyond their understanding, unable to stop the forces once regret inevitably sets in. BLACK MAMBA's punishing scares are technically impressive considering Wilson is creating them with a small team; mutilated genitals, rotting corpses, and trapped souls are used to gag-inducing effect, inserted manically between comedic episodes. Her fast-paced editing keeps visual interest throughout by drawing the eye to demonic apparitions in mirrors, hallways, and bottles. BLACK MAMBA is a wildly entertaining film with an interesting take on spirituality, showing that the punishment for trying to outdo God is swift and dangerous.

We share what may have been the last ever event at Birmingham City University for Black Studies, a conversation between Kehinde and, Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw on her ground breaking new book 'Backtalker'. More than 400 people came out to celebrate the work. The fight to preserve Black Studies is more urgent than ever—and it's rooted in a history of erasure, resistance, and unwavering community strength. In this deeply personal and powerful episode, the pioneer behind critical race theory and intersectionality, pulls back the curtain on how systemic forces are rewriting history and silencing truths—yet black communities continue to fight back with resilience and sharp analysis. Crenshaw shares eye-opening stories from her own life—like nearly being killed by her ex in college, and the relentless efforts to undermine Black women's experiences—highlighting the critical need to defend the frameworks that illuminate racial and gender injustice. She explores how powerful narratives are deliberately erased—whether through bans on books, attacks on Black Studies curricula, or censorship of vital concepts like intersectionality—and exposes how these acts aim to rewrite the story of racial progress. You'll discover how right-wing forces are systematically dismantling the academic and cultural pillars that document and challenge racial oppression. Crenshaw breaks down the real impact of banning ideas like critical race theory, queer theory, and Black Studies—an assault not just on education, but on democracy itself. She also shares strategic lessons on how activists, scholars, and communities can push back effectively—by reclaiming history, advancing intersectional analysis, and resisting the forces that threaten to erase the wisdom of marginalized voices. This episode is perfect for students of social justice, educators, activists, and anyone committed to understanding how embedded power structures operate—and how to dismantle them. Crenshaw's insights equip us with the tools to fight for an authentic, inclusive "we" that acknowledges all of our experiences and histories, especially those most vulnerable. Why does the attack on Black Studies and intersectionality matter? Because the future depends on whether we will defend the knowledge that roots us in truth, or allow it to be wiped out. Join Professor Crenshaw—whose work helped shape the civil rights movement and who continues to lead the fight for justice—and get inspired to speak back and stand firm in this crucial moment.  Get your copy of Backtalker now: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/446848/backtalker-by-crenshaw-kimberle-williams/9780241585221 Read the public letter and sign the petition in support of Black Studies at BCU https://c.org/hnpyKBCX7X Read about the attack on Black Studies: BBC: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwy2d6eg050o The Voice: https://www.voice-online.co.uk/news/uk-news/2026/05/18/they-just-dont-care-about-black-stuff-prof-kehinde-andrews-slams-decision-to-axe-bcu-black-studies-degree/ Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/education/2026/may/12/birmingham-city-university-urged-not-to-axe-black-studies-ma In the Times Higher: https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/black-studies-masters-course-close-birmingham-city Join Harambee OBU: www.blackunity.org.uk Written and hosted by: Kehinde Andrews Edited by: Kadiri Andrews Artwork by: Assata Andrews

In this episode of Ways to Change the World, Krishnan Guru-Murthy speaks to Kimberlé Crenshaw, one of the most influential thinkers on race who coined the term intersectionality. Crenshaw has spent decades challenging how we understand inequality — and why it persists today.Crenshaw's new memoir, Backtalker, is a blunt origin story of the lived experiences that shaped her work - from childhood moments of exclusion to confronting discrimination at Harvard, and the early instincts that led her to question power.The conversation explores the growing backlash against her ideas, from political attacks on critical race theory to efforts to erase or distort the language of inequality. Crenshaw argues that this is not just a cultural debate, but a fight over history, truth and democracy itself.Her solution is as simple as it is risky: talk back.

What does the Bible actually mean by justice? And how should Christians think about "social justice" in today's cultural climate? In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, we sit down with Dr. Christina Crenshaw to explore why justice has become such a defining issue for Gen Z and how Christians can pursue justice in a way that is rooted in Scripture rather than shifting cultural ideologies. Drawing from her book Redeeming Justice: Reclaiming God's Vision for Doing Good in the World, Christina explains the difference between biblical justice and modern social justice, why worldview matters, and how the gospel transforms the way Christians engage brokenness in the world. Together we discuss: *Why justice has become central to Gen Z identit *The difference between biblical justice and social justice *Worldview assumptions behind modern activism *Grace-based justice vs. guilt-driven activism *How Jesus redefined justice *What biblical justice looks like for students today Dr. Christina Crenshaw is an Assistant Professor at Arizona Christian University and a Fellow with its Cultural Research Center. With more than twenty years in Christian education, she has taught widely in leadership, spiritual formation, literature, and human trafficking prevention. She is the author of Redeeming Justice: Reclaiming God's Vision for Doing Good in the World.

Adel Nero and Zak Paine are back together on a Thursday with Frankie Val popping in before heading to a wedding. The guys open on a stunning primary night that saw Trump endorsements go 37 for 37, with Cornyn collapsing in Texas the moment Paxton picked up the nod and a long list of establishment names like Crenshaw, Cassidy, Tillis, McConnell, Raffensperger, and Gabe Sterling all on the way out. From there, Zak makes the case that the GOP machine has spent years planting its weakest senators in the reddest states, and that pattern is finally breaking. The bulk of the episode is a layered breakdown of Thomas Massey's fall from principled outsider to opportunistic grifter, his late conversion to the Epstein issue, and why Trump zeroed in on his seat rather than going after Thune. The conversation closes on a sharper take: that the loudest pro-Israel and anti-Israel voices may be feeding off the same outrage budget, designed to fracture MAGA from within. Lots of nuance, very little hand wringing.

Noah Rothman joins Rep. Crenshaw to discuss the waves of left-wing political violence that have shaped modern American extremism. They dive into why revolutionary politics appeals to young people, how the podcast grift economy fuels conspiracy theories, the rise of populism on both the left and right, and the growing normalization of political violence against conservatives.   Noah Rothman is author of the brand-new book "Blood and Progress: A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America."

Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw is a foundational legal scholar, theorist, and Civil Rights advocate, known for coining such significant and controversial terms as intersectionality and Critical Race Theory. But what — or who — inspired her work? Crenshaw examines just this in her new memoir Backtalker, which delves into her past, and the legal cases that shined light on complex and underresearched structures of inequity. In today's episode, Crenshaw joins NPR's Michel Martin for a conversation about Backtalker and why, as she says, “forward momentum has always been met by retrenchment.”To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedaySee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Over the last year and a half, the Trump Administration has made a big effort to limit which words are used in federal documents. Across government memos and wide-ranging agency material, hundreds of terms and ideas have been explicitly or implicitly forbidden from use. These terms include words like “accessible” or “activism.” Another example? Intersectionality. It's been nearly 40 years since Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term “intersectionality.” And in that time, the word has been twisted into something barely recognizable. We spoke with Crenshaw about her work, her new book, and how her past has given her the strength to keep talking back.And in headlines, Iran responds to the latest U.S. ceasefire proposal, Democrats respond to the Virginia Supreme Court ruling on redistricting, and the cruise ship roiled by hantavirus anchors in the Canary Islands.Show Notes: Check out Kimberlé's book – https://tinyurl.com/4ndwy3rx Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Though Zo wouldn't say that the place where he grew up was exactly safe, Crenshaw would make his hometown look like Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. Police helicopters seemed to be whirring above constantly. The sounds of police and ambulance sirens where stubbornly persistent. In this place the friends who Zo came to visit must find a way to survive: a young man bound for college, an aspiring professional football player, and a young man who just got out of prison whose highest aspiration is to see the next day and avoid of incarceration.
