Addressing anti-immigration rhetoric with Juliet Hooker

See this content in the original post

Why is anti-immigration rhetoric an attractive topic to white supremacists?  What types of laws are currently targeting free speech and critical thinking?

In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, anti-racism educator, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews Juliet Hooker, a Brown University professor. They discuss her new book, Black Grief/White Grievance: The Politics of Loss. Listen as they examine the pattern between progress for marginalized groups and increased resistance towards them. Hooker explains the need to move away from zero-sum thinking when it comes to human and civil rights. 

Professor Hooker is a political theorist specializing in racial justice, Black political thought, Latin American political thought, democratic theory, and contemporary political theory. She has also written on racism and Afro-descendant and indigenous politics in Latin America. She served as co-Chair of the American Political Science Association’s Presidential Task Force on Racial and Social Class Inequalities in the Americas (2014-2015) and as Associate Director of the Teresa Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies at the University of Texas at Austin (2009-2014).
