Summary

This week I’m joined again by Dr. Brad Evans. Brad is a professor of Political Violence at the department of Politics, Languages & International Studies at the University of Bath. His latest book is called Ecce Humanitas: Beholding the Pain of Humanity. In this conversation we discuss the state of the world now: What are the issues we are facing? Who is controlling the narrative of our time? Are there any solutions? Are we trapped in a totalitarian regime and don’t know it? Brad has an incredible mind that understands the inner workings of power, violence, and subjugation.
