This is a lively conversation you won't want to miss. This episode centers on the film Uncle Tom released this summer and executive produced by Larry Elder. It features such prominent conservative black voices as Herman Cain and Candace Owens, among others, all promoting ideas like racism is not systemic but a disease of the mind and that hard work and education are equalizers. While we concur with the film's correction of the modern misuse of the term "Uncle Tom" and appreciate the civil tone of its interviewees, that is where our agreement ends. The film is full of inconsistencies, partial truths, and outright falsehoods that ultimately render it an inaccurate, naive, and at times self-loathing portrait of black conservatism in America. We touch on all of it from black on black crime to Planned Parenthood "abortion factories" to school vouchers to the fatherless black family. Buckle up. You're in for some passionate dialog.
