Critique of Identity Politics
The chapter in this podcast discusses the dangers of groupthink and tribalism that can lead to unfairly characterizing someone as a member of the out-group, however, there is no data or research provided to show that this is a demonstrable problem among college students. The authors provide a critique of identity politics and argue that the distinction between those who are against oppression on the basis of identity and those who are for it is the operative one.
