Ep. 22: Race, Class and DSA w/ Adolph Reed, Jr

Cedric Johnson

My final installment of "Classic DPS" this week comes from Cedric Johnson. This was a great interview and it's an even greater essay, which has since been made available for free on the Catalyst website: https://catalyst-journal.com/vol1/no1/panthers-cant-save-us-cedric-johnson------------------------------In the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement, the topic of "race and class" has been widely debated amongst socialists and progressives. Joining me this week to build on this discussion is Cedric Johnson, Associate Professor of African American Studies at University of Illinois-Chicago. He has an article in the first issue of Catalyst: A Journal of Theory and Strategy called "The Panthers Can't Save us now: Anti-Policing Struggle &amp; The Limits of Black Power." We discuss the current fad of romanticizing the Black Power moment, and highlight the limitations of this era in terms of forging a political strategy for today.Cedric's book, Revolutionaries to Race Leaders can be found here: www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/b…to-race-leaders--------------------Support the Dead Pundits Society on Patreon: www.patreon.com/deadpunditsTwitter: @deadpunditsFacebook: www.facebook.com/deadpundits

Benjamin Studebaker

What is the meaning of Democratic Socialism? In the wake of both Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s primary victory and Cynthia Nixon’s claim that she identifies as a democratic socialist, activists and political actors of all stripes are circling the wagons as they attempt to carve out the meaning on democratic socialism.

Ep. 56: The Meaning of Democratic Socialism w/ Benjamin Studebaker

Joining us this week to talk about the complexity of black political life and how much of the dominant discourse on “race and class” misses this complexity is Cedric Johnson. In the A-side, we discuss his latest essay “What Black Life Actually Looks Like” and analyze a recent debate that played out in the pages of New Politics on race and class.   -What is the notion of “black exceptionalism” and how does it get in the way of producing adequate theories of not only black liberation but the liberation of all? -What is the “racial ‘we’” and how is it deployed to reproduce models of black exceptionalism?-What kind of politics do we need to finish the struggles of the Reconstruction era to the present?   In the B-Side that follows, available for patrons of DPS, we discuss the New Deal — was it racist and do universal policies serve to reproduce racial inequities? Lastly, what should socialists make of the ADOS and Reparations movements?   Cedric Johnson is one of the best commentators on these topics, so tune in and get smart!-To access the B-Side, join the Dead Pundits Society today: http://www.patreon.com/deadpunditsEssays mentioned in this episode:   -Cedric Johnson, “What Black Life Actually Looks Like,” https://jacobinmag.com/2019/04/racism-black-lives-matter-inequality-Cedric Johnson, “Reparations Isn’t a Political Demand,” https://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/03/cedric-johnson-brian-jones-ta-nehisi-coates-reparations-Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, “The Consequences of Forgetting,” https://www.jacobinmag.com/2019/05/reparations-slavery-racism-united-states-foundation -Kim Moody, “Cedric Johnson and the Other Sixties’ Nostalgia, “https://newpol.org/cedric-johnson-and-the-other-sixties-nostalgia"-Mia White, “In Defense of Black Sentiment,” https://newpol.org/issue_post/in-defense-of-black-sentiment/————————————  Twitter: http://twitter.com/deadpunditsFacebook: http://facebook.com/deadpunditssocietyiTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id1212081214YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHahv2fM9eH2K4TzmsWl\_Xg

Ep. 20: R.I.P. Woke Neoliberal Feminism w/ Katie Halper

Nick Kiersey

Is everything neoliberal these days? Joining us to discuss the meaning and impact of neoliberalism in 2019 is Nick Kiersey, professor of political science at the University of Texas-Rio Grande. We discuss the controversial legacy and Foucault and what his insights might add to a discussion of the political-economic dimensions of neoliberalism and late capitalism.  Our recent series of public ownership begs an answer to the following question: if we seek to build a post-neoliberal society, what signposts might an analysis of contemporary neoliberalism provide in that effort? Tune in to find out!  Support DPS Media by becoming a patron today: http://www.patreon.com/deadpundits (and receive access to our weekly B-Sides!)
