In our first episode of The Power of Politics Podcast, we discuss the dynamic and complex issue of racism and social injustice highlighted by the recent Black Lives Matter movement. We explore the relationship between Black Lives Matter and capability  freedoms to show exactly why everyone can and should get behind the recent activism against race-based inequalities. Chris and Tom also apply scrutiny to the recent political demonstrations as well as the concepts of Cancel Culture and Wokeness with the aid of our guest appearance, Sébastien Maxwell.
