Bad Faith

Dr. Cornel West of Harvard University and Professor Tricia Rose of Brown bring their deep political, historical, and hip-hop knowledge to bear on an expansive conversation about the future of the left, the role celebrities should play in social movements, the lost potential of the NBA strike, Barack Obama's role in thwarting the left, and how to overcome the influence of weaponized identity politics.    Dr. West weighs in on the time Obama confronted him about his substantive critiques of Obama's presidency, Brie makes the case for the revolutionary potential of Cardi B, and Virgil makes inauguration plans.    This might be our best episode to date.
