Summary

In the past few years, we have experienced a cultural upheaval surrounding issues of race, sexuality, gender, identity politics, and social justice. Dr. Neil Shenvi and Dr. Pat Sawyer join the podcast to talk about their new book, Critical Dilemma, a thorough, well-documented, fair, and truthful resource that will likely become the go-to primer for understanding the infusion of critical theory into Western society. For anyone left feeling confused, frustrated, and bewildered by the radical shift in culture, this episode will help you navigate the chaos of culture.
