I loved this episode Galen. Please take every opportunity to interview articulate academics like Joan whenever you can. This justified a year of monthly subs.

When GD (Galen Druke) speaks, I sit my brown ass down and listen 🫡

This was phenomenal. I am not in the US, but in Europe and it reminded me a lot of Bourdieu who is read a lot here. He also emphasized that it's neither only a question of distribution nor of culture and recognition, but a blend. Ms Williams made this bridge in a way that will stick with me for quite some time and it really changed my perspective on how to look at people in my everyday. We in Europe have the same divide you guys have over the pond, even if it doesn't show that clearly yet. Especially the "don't scorn" part helps to see the human.

Fascinating conversation!

Enlightening discussion of the Limo-Demos and a reminder perhaps that the Democratic Party rose from slave holders and whose attitudes have not yet totally adjusted from cultural attitudes that embraced the idea of the elite's right - some may see it as responsibility - to tell everyone else how they should do it.

I'll read the book.
