DeVega Show.

Knot: Unraveling Our Patriarchal Legacy, The Forest and the Trees:
Sociology as Life, Practice, and Promise. He is one of the
country's foremost experts on questions of race, gender, and social
(in)equality.
In the second part of their
conversation, Allan and Chauncey discuss masculinity, empathy,
sexism, misogyny, "men's rights", and how best to talk with
students and other people about systems of privilege.
During this week's episode of
The Chauncey DeVega Show, Chauncey offers his
thoughts on last week's Oscars, Super Tuesday, and "Trumpmania".
Chauncey also shares his anger and advocates for a new Deacons for
