The Diversity Trap: how wrong are racial quotas?

The Diversity Trap: how wrong are racial quotas?

In recent days, Lionel Shriver has been in trouble. Her criticism of the publishing industry’s diversity drive has led to her marked as a racist and even dropped from a literary judging panel. She argued that ethnic quotas harm rather than help diversity - is she wrong (1:40)? As Robert Mueller’s investigation continues, several dodgy links to Britain have surfaced that could bring down Trump (19:15). And last, in the age of MeToo, is sex becoming sexier (28:50)?

With Lionel Shriver, Coleman Hughes, Ash Sarkar, Paul Wood, Freddy Gray, Cosmo Landesman, and Katie Glass.

Presented by Isabel Hardman.

Produced by Cindy Yu and Conor O'Hara.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
