How would more critical thinking promote a healthy democracy? | Prof. Mickey Huff & Dr Nolan Higdon | 13
How much of a problem is fake news for Western democracy? Can people learn to think critically to promote open debate? Can the left respond to Jordan Peterson's critiques of critical theory and critical race theory? And are there liberal thinkers who actually support free speech?
In this amazing conversation, Zack speaks to Mickey and Nolan about their new book, "Let's Agree to Disagree: A Critical Thinking Guide to Communication, Conflict Management and Critical Media Literacy."
Prof. Mickey Huff is professor of social science, history, and journalism at Diablo Valley Community College, California and the director of Project Censored, an organisation which promotes the role of the free press and analyses "junk food" news. Dr Nolan Higdon is an author and university lecturer of history and media studies at the University of California. He is also the founding member of the Critical Media Literacy Conference of the Americas.
