YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat would happen if you could end sexism overnight by giving everyone a magic pink pill?
Why changing hearts, minds and culture isn’t enough, you need to change the conditions that generate cultural attitudes in order for changing hearts and minds to have a long term effect.
A thought experiment which gets to the heart of the “class reductionism” vs. race essentialism debate. Crucial things to understand for effective political strategy on almost any issue, with a real "pink pill" example of how post-revolutionary rural China totally failed at fighting patriarchy and male baby preference via education and propaganda campaigns.
Note that at 15:55 I say that there are 114 female births for every 100 males - that was a screw up - the actual stat is 114 males for 100 females!
