Book Club - Age of Insecurity by Astra Taylor
Kristen and Kyla take a break from taking a break to discuss The Age of Insecurity by Astra Taylor. Published in October 2023, this book explores how crises of inequality, mental health, authoritarianism, and ecological collapse could all be addressed by re-evaluating our culture of insecurity. Institutions that promise to make us more secure are functioning to undermine us in this moment, including housing, education, policing, and the wellness industry, and Taylor has some ideas for how we can change society for the better.
