Chris Wright on the Myth of American Moderation
Please support our Patreon. For early and ad-free episodes, members-only content, and more.
Chris Wright is a historian and socialist, the author of “Worker Cooperatives and Revolution” and "Popular Radicalism and the Unemployed in Chicago during the Great Depression." We discuss the myth of American moderation and also how identitarian movements are often framed in an exclusivist way to actually promote that myth while also seeming radical.
