Summary
This week we are joined by the inimitable Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute. As a contributing editor of City Journal and a New York Times bestselling author, Heather calmly dismantles the left’s narrative on diversity, crime, and other contentious topics.
Heather takes us through how so-called “diversity” efforts are dismantling our institutions and destroying our country. She makes a striking point that should be obvious to anyone with common sense: you can have “diversity,” or you can have meritocracy. You cannot have both.
