Text the show! Jason Arday was hired by Cambridge University as a professor of sociology.Chad argues that he was also given another job—one Cambridge never put in his contract.He became a symbol.That distinction is at the center of today's Monologue Monday.Rather than joining the argument over whether Arday's downfall proves DEI is corrupt or whether his treatment proves the media is racist, Chad follows the institutions that surrounded him: Cambridge, Harvard, academia, publishing, and the British press.Why were extraordinary biographical claims repeated for years without basic verification? What happened when academics raised plagiarism concerns with Cambridge? Why did the institution defend Arday before eventually investigating his qualifications? And why did his appointment receive radically different treatment from that of another Cambridge professor later found guilty of plagiarism?Chad also tells a personal story about being offered LGBTQ-targeted business funding—and the moment he realized the people across the table were more interested in his identity and story than the company he was actually building.The episode ultimately reaches a larger argument about DEI itself:A policy can fail. A doctrine cannot.If evidence against a policy causes us to change the method while preserving the mission, the system can correct itself.If every negative result is instead explained away, renamed, ignored, or blamed on the people questioning the program, we're no longer measuring policy.We're defending belief.Call or text the show: 252-CHAD-LAWEverything Common Sense, including Chad's books, editorials, and free Common Sense Conservative Manifesto: ChadParkerLaw.comCHAPTERS00:00 The Job Nobody Tells You About01:02 Jason Arday: The Professor and the Symbol09:43 When the Symbol Has to Keep Growing17:23 Chad's Own Encounter With the Second Job21:07 Hilary Cremen and Cambridge's Warning23:38 The Plagiarism Evidence27:36 Institutional Protection and the Investigation30:12 The Media Helped Build the Symbol33:31 Kendi, Race and the 249-Article Question42:05 When DEI Becomes Doctrine#JasonArday #DEI #Cambridge #MonologueMonday #CommonSense

Authors Ibram X. Kendi (HOW TO BE AN ANTIRACIST) and Heather McGhee (THE SUM OF US) discuss Dr. Kendi's new book CHAIN OF IDEAS: The Origins of Our Authoritarian Age. They break down the Great Replacement Theory, which Kendi calls the most dominant and dangerous political idea of our time; explain how authoritarians around the world are leveraging it to gain power and dismantle democracy; and offer a rubric for recognizing and fighting back against these forces. CHAIN OF IDEAS: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/778233/chain-of-ideas-by-ibram-x-kendi/ THE SUM OF US: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/564989/the-sum-of-us-by-heather-mcghee/    

Historian Ibram X. Kendi says that in order to understand the rise of authoritarianism, we need to understand great replacement theory. It's the racist idea that “powerful elites are enabling peoples of color to steal the lives, livelihoods, cultures and electoral power and freedoms of white people,” Kendi writes in his new book, “Chain of Ideas: The Origins of Our Authoritarian Age.” We talk to the National Book Award-winning author about how politicians are using great replacement theory to justify authoritarian power and how it has moved from the fringes to the mainstream. Guests: Ibram X. Kendi, professor of history, Howard University and founding director of the Howard University Institute for Advanced Study; author, "Chain of Ideas: The Origins of Our Authoritarian Age"; his previous books include "How to Be an Antiracist" and "Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America."

What is “great replacement theory” and how did it come to be a powerful fuel for right-wing nationalist groups in the United States and around the world?  When white marchers in Charlottesville, Virginia, chanted “You will not replace us,” it was probably the first time most Americans had heard the phrase. But a string of mass shooters around the world—in Oslo and Christchurch, Buffalo, El Paso, and Pittsburgh—all claimed their crimes were a defense against “white genocide.” These incidents only scratch the surface of this ascendant idea: Popular and ruling politicians in every region of the world have been expressing some version of great replacement theory, eroding democratic norms in the name of preventing demographic change and claiming to restore national greatness.  Variations on the theory have been around for centuries, but it was given this name by a French novelist in 2011 who believed Black and Brown immigrants were “invading” Europe, brought there by shadowy elites to “replace” Europe's white population. Politicians and theorists—in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Chile, Hungary, Australia and elsewhere—repackaged the conspiracy as a story of “globalists” welcoming “migrant criminals” and diversity initiatives to take away the jobs, cultures, electoral power, and the very lives of white people. Over time, great replacement theory has expanded the threatened categories to include citizens, men, Jews, Christians, heterosexuals, and ethnic majorities in various countries. All are targeted with the message that they are under an existential attack that only a strongman can prevent.  Ibram X. Kendi, author of the new book Chain of Ideas, returns to the Club to explore the roots of great replacement theory and its various mutations around the world. He says the controversial theory has brought humanity into this authoritarian age, but we can free ourselves from it. Come find out how. Learn more about your ad choices.

More To The Story: Just a few years ago, historian and activist Ibram X. Kendi seemed to be everywhere. At the height of the Black Lives Matter movement, he became one of the leading voices on racism in America—and particularly what he described as antiracism. But over the last few years, as a backlash grew against the BLM movement, Kendi also came under attack. His ideas urging people to be actively antiracist were often the target of conservative critics fighting against DEI policies and the teaching of critical race theory. Kendi was also accused of mismanaging an antiracism center at Boston University, which laid off much of its staff before closing last year (BU cleared Kendi of financial mismanagement.) On this week's More To The Story, Kendi responds to the criticism he faced at BU and argues that the Trump administration's policies are harming both white and Black Americans.This is an update of an episode that originally aired in July 2025.Producer: Josh Sanburn, with help from Zulema Cobb and Julia Haney | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonListen: Black in the Sunshine State (Reveal)Read: I'm Racist.

Revered by some, vilified by others, Ibram X. Kendi is America's most controversial anti-racism scholar. In this wide-ranging and frank conversation, the bestselling author of How to Be an Anti-Racist discusses his foundational (and republished) 2012 book The Black Campus Movement, drawing parallels between 1960s student activism and today's Gaza protests. Kendi argues critics deliberately misrepresent his work to "make me into this boogeyman" and keep people from engaging with evidence-based scholarship on racism. Despite facing accusations of being a "fraud," Kendi remains committed to his mission, particularly in his upcoming role at Howard University, where he'll direct a new Institute for Advanced Study. Five Key Takeaways * History Repeating: Kendi argues that today's campus protests over Gaza mirror 1960s Black student activism, with opponents using similar talking points to undermine anti-racist efforts on college campuses.* The "Boogeyman" Strategy: Kendi believes his critics deliberately misrepresent his work to make him seem "scary" and keep people from engaging with his evidence-based scholarship on racism, rather than addressing his actual arguments.* Campus Activism Then vs. Now: Key differences between the 1960s and today include the federal government now working to "re-segregate" campuses rather than desegregate them, and the presence of campus police forces that can suppress demonstrations.* Indirect Racism: Kendi argues that modern racism operates indirectly—when people deny that racist policies exist while racial disparities persist, they're implicitly suggesting that Black people are inferior, just without saying it explicitly.* New Chapter at Howard: After facing controversy and criticism, Kendi is moving from Boston University to historically Black Howard University to direct a new Institute for Advanced Study focused on rigorously studying racism.DR.

On May 19, 2025, the great American revolutionary Malcolm X would have been 100 years old. Dr. Ibram X Kendi has a new YA book about his life.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Racist Suspect Joel Whitney. Classified as a White Man, Whitney is a Brooklyn, NY writer whose work has been featured in The New York Times, The Daily Beast, The Baffler, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, and Boston Review to name a few. He's "a former features editor at Al Jazeera America and a founder and former editor-in-chief at Guernica." Gus originally hoped to speak with Whitney about his 2016 publication, Finks: How the CIA Tricked the World's Best Writers. I'm not quite sure what my original motivation was for exploring this text - could have been Rev. Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple or Soundtrack to a Coup d'État. Anyway, by the time we got our calendars synchronized, Mr. Whitney had written another book, Flights: Radicals on the Run. Most of the featured subjects who had to flee oppression are Victims of White Supremacy like: Minister Malcolm X, Paul Robeson, Dr. Angela Davis, and Leonard Peltier - who recently benefited from a commuted sentence from departing President Biden. During the broadcast, Mr. Whitney repeated the tacky refrain that White people are also "held back" by Racism. He could only list two trifling ways that the System of White Supremacy holds him down. Whitney also engaged in another suspicious and common practice amongst Racist Suspects: Citing the work of Ibram X. Kendi, a Victim of White Supremacy, to confuse non-white people about what it means to be classified as White. #LorraineHansberry #FarceOnWashington #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

In this episode, the girlx/womxn are slightly late to the party in discussing a long piece on Ibram Kendi's implosion, courageously subverting their audience's expectations in order to side, at least sympathize, with the BIPOC man. Was Kendi set up to fail? Did white people set him up to fail? Is this a (very meta) manifestation of the very white supremacy that the Center for Anti-Racist Research was set up to combat? (Yes, yes, and naturally). They then move on to narcissism in the Instagram-girl world. Is it just normal to treat every waking moment of your life like a scene from a movie? Is "boyfriend" just another word for key grip? Finally, a discussion on short hair on women--is it sexy and subversive, or just another way of turning into your mom?A Special Place In Hell is a reader-supported publication, as we have yet to find our billionaire benefactor/sugar momala.

Dr. Andre Archie, author of The Virtue of Color-Blindness, joins us to discuss how the concept of race has been weaponized to demonize certain ethnicities while uplifting others in an ill-conceived effort to correct past discriminations, the evolution of racial ideology in America from slavery to the present day, and whether or not the notion of "systemic racism" is indeed pervasive throughout society. - - -  Today's Sponsor: Beam - Get 40% off for a limited time!

First, he's dissecting the embarrassing Nazi celebration in Canada: the Orwellian push to have it erased from history, Trudeau's fake apology, and the despicable claims that Zelensky, who speaks English and understands Ukrainian history, didn't know that he was saluting a Nazi soldier. “When he [Zelensky] raised his hand,” Norman explains, “this Jew as we're constantly told, he was lending himself to the Nazi cause.” Next, Norman's talking about presidential candidate and celebrated leftist Cornel West. Norm explains he hadn't read any of West's books until this month when he prepped for an interview with the candidate. “I was dazzled,” Norm says. “He's better than me!” The interview, which drops soon on Norman Finkelstein's Podcast, will be a three-hour wide-ranging intellectual conversation. Norm gives us a preview. Subscribe (before prices rise on Oct 1!) to hear our full 90-minute interview where Norm shares his take on Cornel West's candidacy, and we get into a long debate about Norm's favorite pseudo-intellectual millionaire Ibram X Kendi.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, things are falling apart for the race grifter now known as "Ibram X Kendi." He's just the latest anti-racist con artist to be exposed in recent years. Is the anti-racist scam falling apart? We'll discuss. Also, John Fetterman cries over being bullied for his disability. Inmates claim cruel and unusual punishment when they are forced to work in the fields rather than sitting in a cell all day. And a Daily Show clip goes viral where Trevor Noah tries every so cautiously to push back against a babbling trans activist. Ep.1228 - - -  Click here to join the member exclusive portion of my show: https://utm.io/ueSEm   - - -  DailyWire+: Want to work at The Daily Wire?
