Dan 11:32 Episode 63: The Shortcuts of Identity Politics

People have four great hopes: a second innocence after long immersion in a broken world, a justice that is clean and without ambiguity, a security that cannot be undermined, and a world in which there are no more difficult labours. In this episode, we will consider the ways in which Identity Politics attempts to provide shortcuts to the realization of these hopes, with reference to Joshua Mitchell's book American Awakening: Identity Politics and Other Afflictions of our Time.
