Although “populism” is a term that has been rigorously discussed and theorized in political science and communication studies, the term has received special attention ever since the political rise and presidency of Donald Trump. But what does populism actually mean, and how can we trace the lineage of populist conservative discourses that prefigured the Trump presidency?To guide us through the rhetorical history of this fraught concept, we are joined on the show today by Dr. Paul Elliott Johnson, Assistant Professor of Communication at the University of Pittsburgh. His recently published book, I the People: The Rhetoric of Conservative Populism in the United States, tells a captivating story of how conservative politicians and rhetors from the mid-20th-century to the present have appealed to the values of “the people.” Johnson elucidates how the conservative variant of populism has reduced the category of “the American people” through its focus on a possessive individualism constantly under threat by new ways of being and modes of organization. This sense of “the people under siege” has been undergirded by a reactionary response to blackness, which is ultimately traceable to the US's foundation in settler-colonialism and chattel slavery. In our discussion, we talk through several of the rhetorical case studies in Johnson's book, including the political ascendency and presidency of Ronald Reagan, the 1994 midterm elections and the year of the “angry white male,” the astroturfed revanchist “Tea Party” surge during the Obama presidency, and the rise of Donald Trump and the contemporary right-wing. Finally, we discuss some alternative methods of articulating “the people” that might help to expand, rather than reduce, the meaning of US popular democracy.References:Beasley, V. B. (2011).

Janet Stovall shares how she holds institutions accountable for fixing their race issues and why she equipped her children with an understanding of race – in kindergarten. It's no secret that America has race issues, and that this has been the case since its inception. After the recent deaths of Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner, and many others who have lost their lives at the hands of the police or in jail, we are seeing firsthand how far we still have to go to make the country truly equal for everyone. While this isn't something that can be fixed overnight, there are many things you can do to start making some real progress toward improving racial equity. In this show you will learn: Why Race Awareness Starts Early How to have open and honest conversations Why Equip Children With Race Awareness Diversity in Academia - Why Equity Matters Here Too

Muslims living in locations like Australia, Europe, or North America exist within a context dominated by white racial norms and are forced to grapple with those conventions on a daily basis. If they succeed in meeting the presiding criterion of secular liberalism they can be dubbed a “moderate” Muslim by mainstream society. In Radical Skin, Moderate Masks: De-radicalising the Muslim and Racism in Post-racial Societies (Rowman & Littlefield, 2017), Yassir Morsi, Lecturer at La Trobe University, explores these contemporary social dynamics and considers the various ways Muslims don a mask in order to navigate the expectations of the dominant society. Here he offers three paradigms, what he calls the “Fabulous Mask,” the “Militant Mask,” and the “Triumphant Mask,” that represent changing tensions for the “moderate” Muslim. Morsi deconstructs the “radical” vs. “moderate” binary through the forces of racialized structures that shape everyday life and the historical circumstances of Muslims in the “West.” This is achieved through an auto-ethnography that destabilizes traditional scholarship and enables the reader to come to a better understanding of the psychological and material effects of being a Muslim in the times of the “War on Terror” and government funded deradicalization programs. In our conversation we discuss the relationship between religion and race, the category “moderate” Muslim, Frantz Fanon, being a cultural translator, U.S. Muslim scholar Hamza Yusuf, an Islamic art museum exhibit, Australian media personality Waleed Aly & comedian Nazeem Hussain, readings of Edward Said’s Orientalism, British commentator Maajid Nawaz, Friedrich Nietzsche, and confronting the theoretical and practical norms of academic scholarship.

"The Negro Motorist Green Book" was a guide published between 1936 and 1966 as a way for black people traveling in Jim Crow America to find safe places. Author Jan Miles has updated the book, but instead of safe places, she's documented state-by-state accounts of racism and police killing of black people as a way to call attention to the persistence of racism in modern America. We also talk with DACA recipient and activist Monserrat Padilla about her reaction to the latest court ruling against Trump's rescinding of DACA. Finally, we chat with student and core-team leader for March for Our Lives Seattle, Kyler Parris, about today's protest in Sammamish intended to call attention to the money Republican candidate Dino Rossi has received from the NRA.

Michele and Igor are joined by Kenneth B. Morris Jr.—the great-great-great-grandson of Frederick Douglass; the great-great-grandson of Booker T. Washington and the co-founder and president of the Frederick Douglass Family Initiatives—to discuss the bicentennial of Douglass' birth, his legacy as a radical abolitionist and civil rights leader and what young activists can learn from him today. Morris also speaks to President Donald Trump’s ignition of racial tensions in the last year, shares what he believes American classrooms are getting wrong in their teaching of slavery, and why Trump’s reaction to Colin Kaepernick mirrors the backlash Frederick Douglass received for his protest 200 years ago.
In Episode 5, we take a look at how our current American landscape stands out of alignment with the concept of what it means to live in a "Post Racial" society and ways in which we can shift.

Our second episode of the Price Projection Room features a discussion of the poignant horror film Get Out, written and directed by Jordan Peele (MADTV, Key and Peele, and Keanu). Get Out follows a young African-American photographer on a visit to his white girlfriend's parents' home. The tag line sums up the deep horror of the film, "Just because you're invited, doesn't mean you're welcome." In modifying the horror genre to service social commentary on race, but still staying within the conventions of the horror genre, the film is simultaneously funny, relevant, and scary. The film has sparked conversations (and even a viral challenge) throughout the country. Warning: *spoilers!* Featuring Alessandro Ago, Carla Della Gatta, Aubrey Hicks, and Erroll Southers Special thanks to Dean Jack Knott, USC Price; Dean David Bridel, USC School of Dramatic Arts; and Dean Elizabeth Daley, USC Cinematic Arts for their support of this interdisciplinary conversation.

Marc talks to author, pollster, and strategist Cornell Belcher about his book "A Black Man in the White House."
Dog Whistle politics are the politics that frequently spew racial animus and division among different ethnic groups as a result of the constant and often times incendiary rhetoric. Many Southern Democrats, whom are now staunch conservative Republicans, used divisive language to stir up hatred for white voters against Liberals who were supported by civil rights organizations that were predominately black. The racial code words used by Richard Nixon in 1970 is the same language Donald Trump used during the 2016 Presidential Election. Racial Politics has re-emerged in America when it was said that we were in a “Post Racial” society. The documentary 13th featured on the broadcast, enlightens and educates many who were clearly unaware of the racial foundations previously laid to impact the mood and turnout of the 2016 election proving that America was never in a post racial society, just a well hidden one. Sooo…welcome to the Post Trump Society of Racial Politics.
We are nearing the end of the year and have for you a best-of-2016 podcast featuring an array of American politics books.

How are cultural practices that suggest social inclusion at the root of marginalizing social suffering? In The Post-Racial Limits of Memorialization: Towards a Political Sense of Mourning (Lexington Books, 2015), Alfred Frankowski, an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Northeastern Illinois University, makes clear this central tension at the heart of contemporary American life. The re-election of Barack Obama and the murder of Trayvon Martin form the backdrop to Frankowski’s exploration of both the philosophical aesthetics and the practical manifestations of race in America today. From these two events the book moves to consider examples from Kantian aesthetic theory, through the history of memorials and museums, to examples from music, to illustrate how, in memorializing the past, we may forget both lessons and insights into current social struggles. The first book in a new series on the Philosophy of Race, The Post-Racial Limits of Memorialization: Towards a Political Sense of Mourning will be of interests to philosophers and cultural theorists, as well as those considering questions of race in society. Dave O’Brien is the host of New Books In Critical Theory and is a Senior Lecturer in Cultural Policy at the Institute for Cultural and Creative Entrepreneurship, Goldsmiths College, University of London. His research covers a range of areas between sociology and political science, including work on the British Civil Service, British Cultural Policy, cultural labour, and urban regeneration. His most recent books are Cultural Policy: Management, Value and Modernity in the Creative Industries and After Urban Regeneration (edited with Dr. Peter Matthews).

Colson Whitehead's fiction has drawn varied criticism. On the one hand, there's the scholarship of the African diaspora, a tradition that takes the long view of Whitehead–extrapolating him from their existing canon (of Du Bois, Hurston, Ellison, etc.); on the other hand, there's the conversation on Whitehead's work that's happening more in the literary main stream. On Kimberly Fain‘s view, the last word is somewhere in between, and in her Colson Whitehead: The Postracial Voice of Contemporary Literature (Rowman and Littlefield, 2015), she considers a more integral fiction: one both a product of a long history and of an intermediating pop culture. The big task of Colson Whitehead is to position the fictionist as a “postracial” figure–a figure who represents a changing attitude on the concept and reality of race. What would it mean to live a really, truly colorblind America? You can see inklings in Whitehead, especially in his latter work. And while it is clear from Whitehead's own (critical) writing that postracialism is–to us, now–still an ideal, it's in the same writing where race begins to matter not less, but perhaps just in a different way. That race might begin to signify culture, community, a legacy in art–and something less sociopolitical or less economic. Learn more about your ad choices.

Join us today as we raise the question: After President Obama is Black History month still needed? Why do some individuals question the relevance of Black history, as if remembering is the same as living the experience? http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/02/24/black-history-month-still-needed/5797753/
For this, the sixth episode of the third season of The Chauncey DeVega Show, I had the good fortune to chat with Tim Wise. Tim is one of the United States' leading anti-racist educators and activists. He is the author of numerous books including Dear White America, White Like Me, Speaking Treason Fluently, and Between Barack and a Hard Place. In addition to speaking engagements stateside and internationally, Tim is a frequent guest on MSNBC, CNN, and other media outlets. Tim's website can be found here. In this episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show, Tim and I talk about the grind of travel, the merits (or not) of reading email and online comments, what it is like to have Nazi pen pals, pathetic black conservative race hustlers, his recent appearance on CNN's Headline News Network, his new documentary Colorblind: The Rise of Post-Racial Politics and the Retreat from Racial Equity, and why the Age of Obama has driven so many white folks--especially on the Right--into a state of mouth-frothing madness. The format for The Chauncey DeVega Show is that of a virtual bar or salon where two folks sit down and chat with the conversation going where it does naturally. Tim and I have talked over the years via email: this new episode of the podcast series is an extension of that dialogue.

Our first 4-person riff, this episode goes to AMAZING depths of Hollywood culture, with Erika Alexander (of The Cosby Show and Living Single) and her husband Tony Puryear (screenwriter for Eraser, artist for Concrete Park). From discussions of so-called “black hollywood”, to double standards, to the history of various cultural milestones, and all sorts of riffin’ in between. It’s eye-opening, entertaining, and funny as hell.

This presentation examines race and the Obamamania phenomenon in Japan, particularly during Barack Obama's presidential campaign and continuing through 2010. Obama has been wildly popular in Japan, with best-selling books of his speeches as English-speaking lessons, a rural town sharing the same name ("Obama" in Fukui prefecture) re-branding itself with his literal image on souvenir goods, and the coinage of the term "Obamajority" by the mayor of Hiroshima Tadatoshi Akiba upon the 64th anniversary of the bombing of his city to refer to the "majority of people and nations" who want to eliminate nuclear weapons. Obama's many fans in Japan have adopted his two slogans - "Yes we can!" and "Change" - as rallying cries for social and political reform. When asked, many of these fans claim that Obama's race (whether African American or mixed) plays little or no part in his image or popularity, and that he thus heralds the possibility and acceptability of a "post-racial" figure. How is Obama's purported post-raciality inflected by the persistence of blood ideology in contemporary Japan? This presentation is a preliminary talk-through of issues surrounding "post-race" as part of my ongoing research on Obamamania in Japan.

With the recent flap over President Barack Obama's comments in the aftermath of the arrest of Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates, people are once again asking questions about racial equality in the United States. What are the religious, ethical and moral issues of race relations, and will we ever achieve true equality? Rev. Dr. Thomas Shepherd's guests will wrestle with the social, political and theological implications of America's status as a multiracial, multicultural society.
Bliss Broyard grew up feeling there was something about her family that she didn’t know. As her father Anatole — a literary critic for The New York Times — lay dying, her mother revealed what her father wouldn’t — he was part black. “My father truly believed that there wasn’t any essential difference between blacks and whites and that the only person responsible for determining who he was supposed to be was himself,” Broyard wrote in One Drop: My Father’s Hidden Life — a Story of Race and Family Secrets. Following her family’s revelation, Broyard — who was raised as white— began to look into her father’s Creole history and genealogy and learn about the family she had never known. She will present the lecture “From Passing to the Post-Racial: Does Race Still Matter?” Annie Seaton ’90, who has accepted a position as assistant professor and dean of multicultural affairs at Bard College, will be on hand to provide a response and frame discussion around the question: Does race still matter? She has written on race mixing in 20th century culture and has organized courses and conferences around the intersection of race and new media, examining visual constructions of race, such as blackness and Jewishness, via literature, literary theory, psychoanalysis and film. Ten years after DNA tests proved that a male in the line of Thomas Jefferson fathered children by his slave — and on the eve of an election that might see the first black president — discussions of race are still evolving. “These private stories are changing the ways we view race in America,” said Diana Williams, history.
Hey, hey! In this episode, join me as I engage in a meaningful conversation with Brianna Holt, author, writer, and reporter, on her debut book titled IN OUR SHOES: On Being a Young Black Woman in Not-So "Post-Racial" America. Together, we explore the pervasive stereotypes and systemic challenges that Black women face on a daily basis, and empower ourselves to stand in our power.Holt's book offers a roadmap for expanding empathy, understanding, and allyship, as we dive deep into critical topics such as:• The "adultification" of Black girls, which has been linked to violence against them;• The danger of medical misinformation, which often results in Black women being ignored, disrespected, and even fatally harmed;• The prevalence of appropriation, where non-Black individuals treat Black art, music, and style as trends to try on, while Black individuals are criticized for the same things that are part of their cultural identity.Join us as we unpack these important issues and learn from Holt's insights and solutions.You can purchase her book here* -> In Our Shoes: On Being a Young Black Woman in Not-So "Post-Racial" AmericaYou can learn more about Brianna here:Her websiteHer Instagram*As an Amazon affiliate I earn a small percentage every time a purchase is made from my link.
