Summary

James explains what it's been like for a liberal to work with so many conservatives at events like CPAC. James also clarifies what both liberals and conservatives get wrong about the critical race theory debate. James describes what led him to be more concerned about what he calls the crypto woke who function as useful idiots for woke culture by not taking their demands at face value. </p> <p>Learn more about your ad choices.
