Episode Title: Exerted Fear Theory: Moving Beyond Race to Understand Hostility

———————

Fear is one of the most powerful forces shaping our world. From politics to media, from history to today’s headlines—fear is amplified until it divides, dehumanizes, and destroys.

This episode of The Arrogant Independent introduces Exerted Fear Theory (EFT)—a framework developed by this organization and EFT explains hostility through race and the universal biology of fear.

Where Critical Race Theory (CRT) exposes systemic injustice, EFT goes deeper: it explains how ordinary people can be manipulated into extraordinary harm. From Rwanda to Nazi Germany to America’s own polarization, EFT shows us how fear is exerted—and how we can dismantle it.
