Ep. 67: American Illiberalism | Lee Jussim

In the Hold my Drink — navigating culture with a chaser of civility, and Counterweight podcast, Episode 67, we speak with Lee Jussim, Chair and Distinguished Professor in the Psychology Department at Rutgers University. Lee shares his thoughts on a growing American illiberalism, the divide in American academia and his own experiences with cancellation. He explains how our polarization is not really ideological but rather affective, which creates new challenges in our discourse. All discussed with a chaser of civility, of course, an Arnold Palmer, Michelada and a scotch on the rocks.
