#416 - A Sloppy Summer Pod, Recovered

w/ Paul Rossi (Math Teacher and Writer)https://bariweiss.substack.com/p/i-refuse-to-stand-by-while-my-studentsA verdict in the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former officer convicted of murdering George Floyd, is an undeniable milestone for the entire country with wide-ranging implications for American media, politics, and culture.

Paul Rossi joins our distinguished triumvirate to share details of the still-unfolding drama he incited by voicing opposition to one elite Manhattan private school's critical race theory-inspired antiracism programming.Plus:Adam ToledoMa'Khia Bryant"Kindly Inquisitors"Why one Miami Venue REFUSED to host @wethefifth live recording (Hint: "It's cause somebody got' that transphobia."
