Description

Douglas Lain and Freddie deBoer discuss his new book "How Elites Ate the Social Justice Movement."  They explore why left movements fail. In the digital age, social movements flare up but then lose steam through a lack of tangible goals, the inherent moderating effects of our established institutions and political parties, and the lack of any real grassroots movement in contemporary America.School of Materialist Research Linkhttps://schoolofmaterialistresearch.org/Integrated-Credit-Program-Fall-Semester-2023-2024 How Elites Ate the Social Justice Movement by Fredrik deBoerhttps://www.simonandschuster.com/books/How-Elites-Ate-the-Social-Justice-Movement/Fredrik-deBoer/9781668016015Support Sublation Media https://patreon.com/dietsoap

Zero Squared is a philosophy podcast from Zero Books. Zero publishes radical philosophy, aesthetics, film theory, experimental fiction, and anything else that smells faintly of the avant-garde. Our books aim not only to demonstrate how philosophical ideas are relevant to every day life, but also to change the terms of it. Douglas Lain is the host of this podcast and the publisher of Zero Books. He hosted the Diet Soap podcast out of this feed for five years. Zero Squared will continue the tradition of Diet Soap while giving Zero Books authors a chance to talk about their work.
