Hey y’all. I’m in Texas today visiting family and it’s a trip!
Onto to the recs for today:
1/ This podcast dives into “luxury beliefs” and explores why it’s often those least effected by an issue that loudly proclaim its importance. I found the discussion around Defund the Police particularly interesting. I’m not making claims either way, but it’s worth hearing all sides, in my opinion.
2/ I really love Simone’s videos, but this one, with its animations and all, was especially fun. She’s worth a sub for sure.
3/ As more and more comes out about Jan 6th and how we should understand the events that took place, I revisited this piece from the New Yorker.
We do not fear those whom we see as being like us; we fear the other.
The Washington Post’s ongoing investigation is also worth a reviewing. It’s pretty incredible this happened and how things continue to unfold.
That’s all for this week. Thanks and be sure to share with anyone you think needs some new content in their life. Appreciate you all.
