Show Notes

The season 3 finale welcomes Dr. Erec Smith, an associate professor of rhetoric at York College of Pennsylvania to the podcast. We discuss the new discourse of Anti-Racism and its negative effects on education and course materials, the importance of individualism and why it tends to be feared, erroneous and limited narratives of Black communities in America and the individuals they comprise, Social Justice and the Civil Rights Movement, and significance of Bayard Rustin, Martin Luther King Jr., and Malcolm X as representing free, open, and diverse Black thought. All this and more on #MOI!

 

Thanks, Erec!
