A Word: Between the World and Us
Writer Ta-Nehisi Coates is arguably the strongest voice of his generation on the role of race and identity in American politics and culture. He’s the author of several books, including “Between the World and Me,” “We Were Eight Years in Power,” and “The Beautiful Struggle,” and the recipient of a MacArthur “genius” grant and a National Book Award. For this week’s episode, we feature a conversation between Coates and host Jason Johnson, recorded live at the recent Cascade PBS Ideas Festival. They discuss everything from the diss track battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, to the campus protests over the Middle East, to the limits –and necessity– of participating in electoral politics.
Guest: Award-winning writer Ta-Nehisi Coates
Podcast production by Kristie Taiwo-Makanjuola

zone of interest
The zone of interest episode was amazing from start to finish—including the Holocaust, Barbie, House of Gucci, and Solnit’s essay on San Francisco.
so woke it’s like a cartoon
‘Outward: the inherent queerness of poetry’ is the title of one episode - hahahaha!!!!!
Always great
I’ve been listening to the Culture Gabfest for many years and Steve, Dana and Julia feel like old friends who guide me through whatever is new, trendy or worth paying attention to.
