In this clip from TGS John McWhorter and I discuss the post-George Floyd, anti-police hysteria of the summer of 2020, when it was said to be 'open season' on black people.
Great article on Glenn Loury. nytimes.com/2024/05/08/opi… (Read the The New Yorker article linked in the piece, too.)
At TGS John McWhorter and I challenge Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on his commitment to protecting residents in disadvantaged communities from the depredations of violent offenders. He answers by stating his (predictably liberal) views about solutions. And we demur.
At TGS this week John McWhorter and I interview Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison about controversy over his prosecution in 2021 of the police officers involved in the death of George Floyd. Here he passionately states his view on the Minneapolis cops, good, bad and ugly.
Talking with John McWhorter this week at TGS I distinguish between 'race blindness' and 'race indifference,' warning the advocates of 'colorblindness' that embracing the former position does not require nor does it justify adopting the latter. I expand on that idea in this clip.
At TGS this week John McWhorter and I discuss, among other things, the conflict of visions at the Supreme Court about racial affirmative action and the 14th Amendment. In this clip I explain why I believe the conservatives have the better of that argument.
At TGS this week John McWhorter is back. This clip contrasts the reasoning of Justices Thomas and Jackson in that recent affirmative action case, pitting the 'colorblindness' against the 'systemic racism' arguments. We think these two esteemed jurist are talking past each other.
