In this episode I sit down with the awesome and thoughtful Roderick Graham, an Associate Professor of Sociology and Criminal Justice at Old Dominion University. We have a long and fruitful conversation about Critical Race Theory, the recent rise of the so-called “anti-wokes” and their regressive activities--both in the intellectual and legal sphere. We talk about the way we gain knowledge and how that can be used against us by cynical operators. Finally, we touch on Roderick’s recent research into the internet “Manosphere”, the shadowy world of men who feel betrayed by society--to the extent that they’ve taken to the web in order to build their own, often toxic and highly reactionary, spaces away from prying eyes. www.reasoningaloud.org/rodgraham
