Podcasts about Identity politics

What if everything you thought you knew about race, racism, and social justice was only part of the story? In this explosive episode, Coleman Hughes, (Free Press writer, podcast host of Conversations with Coleman, and author of The End of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America) joins Mayim and Jonathan for a deep, nuanced discussion about identity, equality, and the role of technology in shaping cultural narratives. From the rise of critical race theory and the decline of race relations post-2013 to the algorithmic outrage fueled by social media, Hughes breaks down the data behind America's polarization and makes the case for true colorblindness. Is DEI making things better or worse? Are inherited trauma and systemic racism scientifically valid concepts? Hughes tackles how identity politics gave rise to Donald Trump, the difference between neo-racism and old-school racism and why he believes we need to talk about race less, not more. Whether you agree or disagree, this is a must-watch for anyone grappling with today's culture wars. Don't miss this thought-provoking dialogue. Conversations with Coleman Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conversations-with-coleman/id1716338488 Coleman Hughes' Book, The End of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/671726/the-end-of-race-politics-by-coleman-hughes/ BialikBreakdown.comYouTube.com/mayimbialik

Raynard Jackson, president and CEO of Raynard Jackson & Associates, LLC, discusses the collapse of civil discourse in America, the role of media bias and identity politics, and why Black conservative voices are still being sidelined in today's political landscape.

So we're back with my buddy Dr. Andrew Root and his brand new book Evangelism in the Age of Despair - and no, before you ask, this is definitely not your typical door-to-door evangelism handbook. Andy's doing what he does best here, which is taking some heavy theological machinery (theology of the cross, Charles Taylor, French philosophers you've never heard of) and making it speak to the very despair of our concrete cultural moment. The basic argument? Our whole pursuit-of-happiness project has been a spectacular failure, leaving us isolated and constantly chasing distractions. Perhaps the church's calling isn't to add happiness to people's lives but to accompany them into their sorrow. It's evangelism as consolation rather than conversion, which sounds both obvious and revolutionary at the same time. We dive into why the optimistic 90s crashed into our current age of anxiety, how social media turned authenticity into competitive rage, and what it might mean for pastors to be professionally human rather than professionally shiny. Plus, we got questions from actual Substack subscribers who read the thing, which is always dangerous territory. This will not make you feel better about anything, but it might make you think differently about what the gospel actually is. Join us at Theology Beer Camp this October 16-18 in St. Paul, MN.⁠⁠⁠ (Andy is coming too!) Andrew Root is the Carrie Olson Baalson Professor of Youth and Family Ministry at Luther Seminary, USA. He writes and researches in areas of theology, ministry, culture, and younger generations. Check out some of his most recent books  Andy has worked in congregations, parachurch ministries, and social service programs. He lives in St. Paul with his wife Kara, two children, Owen and Maisy, and their dog. When not reading, writing, or teaching, Andy spends far too much time watching TV and movies.

Modern society is in the midst of an identity crisis. From gender and race to body image and social status, we're defining, defending, and dividing ourselves by external labels. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how ancient yogic wisdom provides a powerful alternative: knowledge of the self. Through discussion, humor, and insights from the bhakti-yoga tration, they unpack how we can stop tiptoeing around fragile identities and live from the truth of who we really are. Key Themes: •⁠  ⁠Carl Jung's insight on identity and self-definition •⁠  ⁠How real kindness comes from seeing through labels, not tiptoeing around them •⁠  ⁠Identity politics = bubble-wrapping the world / Knowledge of the self = putting on shoes SB 10.1.44-66 ********************************************************************* LOVE THE PODCAST?

Back in 2016, Joan Williams, distinguished professor of law (emerita) at UC Law San Francisco, wrote an essay for the Harvard Business Review on why President Donald Trump attracted so many non-college voters. It went viral with almost four million views, becoming the most-read article in the 90-year history of the publication.Williams' new book, Outclassed: How the Left Lost the Working Class and How to Win Them Back, outlines how the seemingly common view that her fellow progressives must abandon their social causes to win back those non-college-educated voters is wrong. What is required, she argues, is a renewed understanding of class. She introduces her conceptualization of the “diploma divide,” or the gap between Americans with and without college degrees. Her worldview divides the electorate into three class-based groups: the college-educated, upper-class “Brahmin left”, the low-income working (middle) class, and the right-wing merchant class, which pushes for economic policies that benefit the rich. Her argument is that a new coalition between the latter two has shifted politics to the right.In this week's Capitalisn't episode, Luigi and Bethany invite Williams to discuss whether our society indeed breaks down so neatly. If it does, how does her breakdown help us understand recent electoral shifts and trends in populism and why the left is on the losing end of both? As she writes in her book and discusses in the episode, “[the Brahmin] left's anger is coded as righteous. Why is non-elite anger discounted as “grievance?” Together, their conversation sheds light on how the left can win back voters without compromising on progressive values.Over the last four years, Capitalisn't has interviewed conservative thinkers like Oren Cass, Patrick Deneen, and Sohrab Ahmari to understand how the political right developed a new platform after President Joe Biden's victory in 2020. With this episode, we begin the same project with the left by asking: What could be the economic basis for a new progressive platform?Show Notes:Read an excerpt from Joan Williams' new book, “Outclassed: How the Left Lost the Working Class and How to Win Them Back,” out now at St. Martin's PressQuiz: “Are You in a Class Bubble?”What So Many People Don't Get About the U.S. Working Class, by Joan Williams, Harvard Business Review, November 10, 2016

Send us a textTexas is cooking up a bill that could land trans people in jail for “identity fraud.” Meanwhile, society keeps defending criminals more than the people protecting what's theirs—because logic is dead. We dive into how the glorification of unhealthy lifestyles now includes plus-size caskets, and why a hunger strike at UCLA fizzled out with about as much impact as a tofu protest.Also on deck: The media's back on its scripted drama with claims that Trump blindsided South Africa's president. Fluoride is turning up in concrete (and possibly turning your teeth to chalk), and chemtrails are no longer a conspiracy—whistleblowers and news reports are saying the quiet part out loud. Oh, and Delta Airlines is now rolling out “parallel reality” tech that sounds like the future… or a Black Mirror episode.Buckle up—because reality is getting glitchy.Keywords: identity fraud law Texas, trans jail bill, UCLA hunger strike, fat caskets, fluoride conspiracy, chemtrails real, Delta parallel reality, Trump ambush fake news, fluoride concrete teeth, political manipulation, media scripts, R2 Cents podcastThanks for listening to R2 Cents With Oscar!

Why are Democrats suddenly begging to talk to Trump voters? In this episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we explore what's really driving the left's sudden pivot—from ghosting conservatives to groveling for “common ground.” Has the Democratic elite finally realized their echo chamber isn't just annoying—it's costing them elections? And more importantly... are they too late? Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": https://www.briannicholsshow.com/heart From Gavin Newsom's awkward podcast outreach to AOC's desperate listening tour, the left is scrambling to reinvent itself in the face of plummeting public support. Brian and guest Joey McFadden break down the deeper reasons behind this shift, including the Democrat Party's cultural missteps, tone-deaf policies, and the growing backlash to elitist, performative progressivism. It's not just about bad messaging—it's about a complete disconnect from everyday Americans. Joey, a self-described centrist Democrat, brings a rare voice of reason from the other side of the aisle. He shares firsthand how the left's obsession with identity politics and virtue signaling has alienated moderates and centrists—and how conservatives, ironically, have become more open to real conversations. You'll hear why blue-haired radicals don't speak for the silent majority, and how even Democrat strongholds are waking up. We also dive into the failure of progressive policies in real life—from busted promises in public transportation to crumbling communities and skyrocketing violence. Why does the left keep pushing policies that “feel good” but don't actually work? Brian and Joey tackle the uncomfortable truth about intent versus outcome—and how political messaging can be both morally grounded and results-driven. This isn't your average red-versus-blue shouting match. It's a smart, funny, and brutally honest conversation about how both sides can move forward—if they're willing to ditch the tribalism and deal with reality. If you're tired of politics-as-usual and want real answers, this is the episode you've been waiting for. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (https://www.briannicholsshow.com/heart) with code TBNS at checkout for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

In this bonus episode, I sit down with Cody Cook to wrestle with some uncomfortable questions facing the liberty movement today. We talk about the rise of identity politics—not just on the left, but increasingly on the right—and whether libertarianism can offer a true alternative or if it's being co-opted by tribal instincts and reactionary impulses. Using Jeff Deist's controversial “blood and soil” quote as a starting point, we explore how freedom of association intersects with issues of nationalism, racism, and open borders.Can liberty thrive in a society fragmenting along cultural and tribal lines? Is decentralization enough, or do we need a shared moral foundation to preserve peace and voluntary cooperation? We reflect on Rothbard's Nations by Consent, the Christian nationalist temptation, and whether becoming a republic again is a prerequisite to building a voluntaryist future. It's a challenging but necessary conversation on where liberty and principle must stand in a world increasingly defined by group identity.Full show notes at biblicalanarchypodcast.comJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbZXhwAg-sYSU-UXjDAE_cA/join

Journalists play a vital role in a democracy, holding power to account. The traditional model of journalism sees journalists as disinterested seekers of the truth, striving for ‘objectivity' and suppressing their own opinions. But as newsrooms and editorial pages previously staffed only by white male journalists have evolved, and as the internet has driven the rise of opinion journalism, we are faced with two important questions: Does it matter who journalists are? And does it matter what they think? At a time when media business models are in crisis, how should we think about bias, representation, truth and opinion? What happens when journalists themselves become ‘the story'? And if we can't talk about these thorny questions in the media itself, can the media do its job at all?  Antoinette Lattouf is a broadcaster, columnist, author, speaker, human rights advocate, mental health ambassador who dabbles in satire and is terrible at reverse parking. She is the creator and co-host of The Antoinettes podcast, a weekly commentary and comedy podcast. She is also the co-host of news and analysis podcast The Briefing.

When Elissa Slotkin narrowly won her Senate seat in Michigan last fall, she was one of only four Democratic senators to claim victory in a state that voted for Donald Trump. It made other Democrats take note: since then, the Party has turned to her as someone who can bridge the red state–blue state divide. In March, Slotkin delivered the Democrats' rebuttal to Trump's speech before Congress, and she's been making headlines for criticizing her own party's attempts to rein in the President and the Republican Party. She thinks Democrats need to start projecting “alpha energy,” that identity politics “needs to go the way of the dodo,” and that Democrats should drop the word “oligarchy” from their vocabulary entirely.Slotkin prides herself on her bipartisanship, and she believes that Democrats must use old-school collegial collaboration in Congress. And, as different Democratic leaders have appeared on The New Yorker Radio Hour in the past few months, discussing what the next four years might have in store, Slotkin tells David Remnick about a different path forward.

In this episode of Keeping It Real, the rant king does what he does best: cutting through the B.S. with brutal clarity and biting humor. He and Jillian tackle the intentional demolition of California under Gavin Newsom's watch, from the homelessness epidemic and out-of-control wildfires to the high cost of living, decaying infrastructure, and virtue-signaling policies that are driving residents out in droves. Along the way, Adam lets loose on political hypocrisy & identifies the politicians he thinks are the most dangerous. Plus, he slams Hollywood groupthink, the culture war on men, and why common sense has become a radical act.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

“The phrase “straight white men” seems to have been imported into Ireland from the United States as a way for certain people to flaunt their right-on credentials but all it ends up doing is antagonising people.” We discussed this further with Ian O'Doherty, Columnist with the Irish Independent.

Plus, we joke about Gail King's fear of flying and her possible ear-piercing moment at Claire's, and Todd teases making a Battlehawks appearance if the price is right.

The Voice Of GO(r)D podcast was recently contacted by a representative of the American Communist Party, seeking more information about trucking and truckers, with a particular focus on truckers in Canada. As this podcast is happy to speak with (almost) anyone, I was happy to hear from someone on the opposite side of the bottom of the horseshoe to myself, and I thus invited Timmy onto the show in what is something of a two way interview - she asking me about trucking, and me asking her many questions about her communist ideological priors.I know many people who follow me might be aghast at the idea of speaking to a ‘Commie' but I think our highly volatile political discourse landscape obscures definitions and forgets that not all stereotypes apply. As I mention to Timmy on the show, when I became a bit more well known for defending the Freedom Convoy, the very first people to seek my input on the reality of the Convoy and its class composition were legitimate working class Marxists, not the obese purple haired maniacs whose brains have been fried by Identity Politics and The Borg™️. It seems like Timmy and her comrades in the American Communist Party, like myself, want nothing to do with that nonsense, and would rather focus on the material improvement of working people, including truckers.Throughout the discussion, we discuss the particularities of wage suppression in trucking, the abuse of migrants by policies pushed by Mega Carriers, as well as indentured servitude programs run by their own co-ethnic gangsters, the history of Jimmy Hoffa and the Teamsters, and much else. I mention this great book about Hoffa in the show, and you ought to read it.Timmy recently appeared on a Twitter space with fellow trucking media Internet Niche Micro Celebrity Timothy Dooner, where they discussed the ACP employing the term ‘MAGA Communism'. A complimentary and interesting discussion, which you can listen to here.As you know, I'm working on a book titled “End Of The Road - Inside The War on Truckers” and you can find out more about that here -https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/book-project-announcement-and-a-majorAs always - questions, comments, suggestions, corrections and Hate Mail are welcomed and strongly encouraged - gordilocks@protonmail.com

They discuss the inadequacies of critiques against social justice, the nature of liberalism as a religion, and the implications of these ideologies on American identity and nationhood. Harris emphasizes the need for a positive vision that critiques liberalism while offering a Christian order as a solution. The conversation explores the complexities of defining a nation in a liberal context and the challenges faced by Christians in navigating these ideologies. In this conversation, Jon and Chase explore the complexities of nationhood, assimilation, and identity in the context of modern society. They discuss the implications of immigration, the challenges of cultural integration, and the narratives shaped by political ideologies. The dialogue also delves into the conservative response to liberal framing and the importance of maintaining a positive vision rooted in heritage and faith.Support the showSign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/

What does it mean for a university to become a battleground against deep-seated prejudices and historical tensions? In today's episode, we dive into these challenging questions with our distinguished guest, Cary Nelson, a celebrated scholar and ardent advocate for academic freedom.Nelson shares his insights on the intersection of anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism in academia, a topic explored in his new book, "Mindless: What Happened to Universities?" The conversation examines how the lines between critique of Israel and hostility towards Jewish students blur, becoming toxic and divisive forces across campuses, from historical shifts that turned post-1948 anti-Zionism into a rejection of Israel's existence to the phenomenon of hatred and the campus protests that undermine foundational academic values. Nelson calls for reclaiming the core purpose of academia as a community of imperfect learners where dialogue and understanding prevail. In This Episode:Historical context of anti-Zionism and its transformation into anti-SemitismThe unique pressures faced by Jewish students on campusesThe role of social media in spreading campus protestsDistinctions between psychological and intellectual safety in AcademiaThe undermining of the university's role as a space for diverse perspectives About Cary:Cary Nelson is Jubilee Professor of Liberal Arts & Sciences Emeritus at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and an affiliated faculty member at the University of Haifa. He holds an honorary doctorate from Ben Gurion University of the Negev. Over his distinguished career, Nelson has authored or edited 36 books and published over 400 essays, focusing on modern poetry, critical theory, the politics of higher education, and issues related to antisemitism and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. From 2006 to 2012, he served as president of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), advocating for academic freedom and shared governance. Nelson's latest work, “Mindless: What Happened to Universities?”, published on March 6, 2025, examines how universities have deviated from their commitment to shared intellectual principles, leading to environments where extremism and intolerance can flourish.
