Episode: Linda Alcoff and Alex Han Interviewed on WBAI by The Indypendent
Description: In 2021, the Republicans have used racial dog whistles around critical race theory, “parents rights” and other manufactured culture war controversies to energize their base, especially in Virginia where their candidate won the governor’s race.
In our election night special, we speak with Linda Martín Alcoff, author of T'he Future of Whiteness,' about this and how the Left should respond. We also speak with Alex Han, executive director of Organizing Upgrade, about the impact of national Democrats being unable to deliver on their promises in a moment of surging right-wing populism.
