The Book of Woke: Introducing Critical Constructivism

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 162

Woke isn't just a slang term describing Identity Marxist beliefs about the world. Woke is a worldview, a religion. The right name for the ideology and worldview of Woke is critical constructivism, and it was first codified and explained in detail by a critical pedagogue by the name of Joe L. Kincheloe. In 2005, Kincheloe published a primer text on critical constructivism, titled Critical Constructivism: A Primer (https://amzn.to/3YepptI), and this book could very well be regarded as The Book of Woke. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay introduces this book and the deeper understanding of Woke behind all the praxis. It will be the first in a series exploring this book and exposing Woke for what it really is: a cult religious worldview. Join him to learn more than ever before.
