Progress and Terror

Greg highlights the measurable progress represented by a Black president and vice president, while emphasizing the deep-rooted issues of systemic racism and the lingering effects of historical trauma. The conversation shifts to the pervasive nature of fear as a tool of authoritarianism, particularly how young men are co-opted into spreading terror online. Both speakers agree that white supremacist terror remains one of the most significant threats in the country’s history, overshadowing other forms of violence and oppression.
