Our Superdelegate patrons have made a selection, and they couldn't have picked a spikier topic if they'd tried! AMERICAN RADICAL: THE TRIALS OF NORMAN FINKELSTEIN (2009) captures Finkelstein -- academic, writer, and outspoken critic of Israel -- while he's in the midst of a war with Alan Dershowitz. The documentary gives us opportunity to discuss Finkelstein's incendiary rhetorical style and to wade into the fraught issue of "cancel culture." PLUS: we discuss two of the key films of our time (Paul Schrader's The Canyons and Christopher Nolan's Tenet), eroding voting rights in the United States, and a recent rebuttal to Luke from no less than David Frum!
