Today’s episode (75 mins) is a conversation with George Yancy, Professor of Philosophy at Duquesne University. George is the author of a number of books, editor of even more including an important collection of interviews with African-American philosophers, and recently has continued in his role as interviewer over at the New York Time’s philosophy blog The Stone. We were very lucky to get to turn the tables on him to discuss his biography, his work on critical race theory, and his thoughts on what the recent police killings, lack of indictments, and #BlackLivesMatter protest movement means for our understanding of race.
