They raised all the big points, and provided important context. For example, Lee asked What are the concrete benefits of the 60s social movements? The racial wealth gap is worse than ever, women’s rights didn’t deliver domestic equality. And the answer was context: the mass expectation that we SHOULD have equality - that black people and women and queer people are people who are unfairly denied it. It’s hard to imagine what it was like before that, but it can be done, and that’s what’s needed to see the concrete benefits. For another example, Lee asked Why was there a solidarity in the 60s and Great Depression generations that subsequent generations have lacked? We’ve turned inward rather than collectively working for the equality we all believe in. His answer was Roosevelt, and the scope of the labor movement. All in all very satisfying, especially the ending - but no spoilers. You have to listen if you want to find out.
