“We are the Evidence” MLK, Inauguration Day and The Road Ahead, with The Group Chat
How do you make sense of a day that both honored Martin Luther King, Jr. and ushered in a president determined to demolish progress at warp speed? Brittany calls up two people equipped to do it: group chat members Dr. David J. Johns and Dr. Brittney Cooper. Together, they trace the origin of white obsession with “meritocracy,” the price the country has paid for the success of Barack Obama, the fact that more information does not equal more knowledge, and how we’ll survive this moment the way we would a storm. Plus: Brittany honors the life and legacy of her friend (and frequent UNDISTRACTED guest) Cecile Richards.
