Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
In the twelfth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with Mike Gonzalez of the Heritage Foundation, author of The Plot to Change America: How Identity Politics is Dividing the Land of the Free.
Before entering the think tank world, Gonzalez worked as an international journalist for many years, including covering the Mujahideen in Afghanistan and being jailed by a dictator in Panama, and ultimately landing as a columnist for the Wall Street Journal for many years. He has another book slated to come out this fall, on the organization Black Lives Matter. His work on the formation of political identities for broad racial categories like “Hispanic” and “Asian,” along with his criticism of critical race theory, has earned him the ire of the nation’s largest teachers’ union.
In this episode, Inez and Mike discuss his experiences living under a multitude of different regimes, why America is worth saving, the intellectual roots of “wokeness,” and why some critics of the legislation states are passing to try to remove CRT from public school curriculums is wrongheaded.
