Is there a case for open borders?
Welcome to the pod, John Washington! He’s just published a great new book called The Case for Open Borders, and on KK&F this week, for our 161st episode, we’re asking him to lay out that case for us. What would it mean, in the midst of a humanitarian crisis — when conservative border policies mean brutality and loss of human life for people seeking safety and opportunity in the U.S. — to radically reimagine border policy in this way? What (if anything) is gained by our current punitive, murderous system, and what does humanity stand to gain by the United States getting rid of that system?

We hope you’ll join us for this urgent conversation with a brilliant thinker on his fascinating new book. If you’re a paying subscriber to KK&F — only $5 a month! — you can access the video version of our convo when it’s released Friday night. Everyone else can tune in Saturday evening when the episode drops as a podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pandora, and other major streaming platforms. See you soon!
