Episode Details

Eric Kaufmann is a Canadian professor of politics at the University of Buckingham. He was appointed in October 2023, following his resignation from his post at Birkbeck, University of London, after two decades of service, citing political differences. Today, we discuss the origins of wokeness, what it actually is - and why it isn't what the woke say it is.
