The American Left: Identity Politics and the Great Awokening Aug 14, 2024

Show notes

On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss the marrying of corporate and radical interests before introducing Hillsdale College Politics professor Kevin Slack.

American politics have drastically transformed over the last few decades as a ruling elite has emerged that, despite being from different parties, largely shares radical ideologies centered around identity politics. The change is not simply the natural conclusion of progressivism, but rather a series of radical movements that have provided new ideas and shifted the Left from the liberalism of Franklin Roosevelt to the Great Awokening of Barack Obama’s second term.

The neoliberal elites adopted the radical ideologies and the identity politics priesthood in the Great Awokening. Populist movements from the Left and the Right threatened the neoliberal order, so they adopted radical Left ideologies to co-opt the political influence of the Left.
