0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of the new Discourses podcast. Guess who we're talking about today?
0:27.2	Did you guess? Oh, very crap. Here we are again. Actually, I will come back and do
0:34.9	pedagogy of the oppressed as I promised. I'm not doing that yet. What I actually want to do
0:40.1	is I want to read through to I've written an encyclopedia entry for my social justice encyclopedia
0:46.8	that I finally started working on a little bit again recently. I don't know how much work I'm
0:51.2	going to do with it right now, but I've done a few new entries. Check them out ESG, SEL, all kinds of
0:55.8	good stuff. Well, I've also written one for well, drag queen story air, but also for Aryan. In other
1:03.1	words, what does it mean to be of the thought of Pollo for Ary? Okay, and so I figured that this
1:09.3	is such a great capstone on everything that I've been saying about Pollo for Ary that I'm just

1:34.5	driving while you're you know working or doing the lawn or whatever and you can't read while you're
1:41.4	doing those things. And so I just know that this is a case and I don't mean any insult to anybody,
1:47.6	but I'm actually for the most part just going to read this entry. And I think it's a good capstone
1:55.6	on our exploration of Pollo for Ary for the moment. I will come back and do pedagogy of the
2:00.2	oppressed, that's mostly because the Brazilians are desperate for me to do it as far as I can tell
2:03.6	from what they're reaching out to me about. But as a few if you know much about my social justice
2:08.5	encyclopedia, which is called translations from the Wokish, it's on the new discourses website.
2:12.6	You should go to the social justice encyclopedia and share the articles or the entries there
2:18.0	that try to explain the words. I think I could rewrite most of them now and make them tighter and
