The Identity Crisis Behind Gender Politics w/ Angela Franks
Summary
Angela Franks, Associate Professor of Theology at Catholic University of America and author of "Body and Identity: A History of the Empty Self," joins me to discuss how modern identity crises, rooted in philosophy and secularism, have reshaped our understanding of the body, gender, and what it ultimately means to know who we are.
