In this candid episode, Russell speaks with Monica Harris, Executive Director of the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism (FAIR). They discuss the implications of identity politics and dive into the turbulent reaction following peak “woke” policies and the inevitable backlash of post-DEI initiatives demonstrating Newton’s third law—”Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”.
Monica explains how, in these polarized times, “the adults have re-entered the room.” She offers her unique perspective on reclaiming balanced, common-sense approaches to systemic problems based on our shared values.
