15:49Now PlayingLiberals are absolutely convinced that they’re being virtuous and fighting the good fight by aggressively promoting the causes of people of color, members of the LGBT community and pretty much anyone who is a victim of oppression. But as University of California, Irvine film and media studies professor and “Virtue Hoarders” author Catherine Liu points out, this hyper-focus on identity politics serves the interest of elites by both alienating working people who don’t share the concerns over “identity” and ignoring the wider economic plight faced by a much larger swath of the citizenry.
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Liu about why political leaders like Cornel West constantly harping on trans rights and white supremacy are actually helping the powerful to maintain control.
