A Postmodernism Postmortem

Join James Lindsay as he sits down with Benjamin Boyce, former student of The Evergreen State College who has a mission to document, understand, and communicate exactly why that college melted down around critical race Theory (among related issues), for a open-ended discussion of postmodernism, critical race Theory, and the various critical theories that characterize the Critical Social Justice movement today.

In this fast-paced discussion, the pair go through the postmodern roots of the Critical Social Justice ideology, dipping heavily into the research material for Lindsay’s forthcoming book with Helen Pluckrose, Cynical Theories. If you want to understand where all of this Critical Social Justice stuff came from and how it thinks, this is definitely one to watch.
