We have been doing a lot of introspection during this podcast, and this particular episode is the culmination of a lot of the conversations we have been having recently about racial justice and the general power dynamics at play in American society. We invite our friend Ronald Young Jr. back on the show to have a conversation about whether power is zero sum, Black Panther and whether Michael B. Jordan did a good job as Killmonger, and the general axis of change with the Martin Luther King Jr. nonviolent approach on one side and the Malcolm X violent revolution approach on the other.
This last topic has obviously been a topic of discussion for decades so we don't claim to come down on where on this axis we ought to be in this episode, the closest we probably get is that mainstream society has really picked a side (the MLK side) and in reality, the answer is probably more ambiguous than mainstream education would make it seem. While we broadly agree that incrementalism is a better approach than violent revolution, we talk about how one of the most important questions of our current historical moment is deciding what strategies progressives should be employing, given that it can be so demoralizing to be on the side where "when they go low, we go high" always seems to be the least effective way out.
