week's episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show. She is the
author of Gospel According to the Klan: The KKK’s Appeal to
Protestant America, 1915-1930, as well as The Zombies Are
Coming!: The Realities of the Zombie Apocalypse in American
Culture.
In this week's episode of the
podcast, Kelly and Chauncey talk about the "good white people"
problem and racism, white identity politics and Donald Trump, the
history of the Ku Klux Klan, as well as the various genres of hate
mail and white toxic masculinity. Chauncey and Kelly also talk
about their shared love of zombies and the not so hidden gender and
racial politics of The Walking Dead TV series.
During this week's podcast, Chauncey
talks about going to see Barack Obama's farewell address as a
member of the press, shares a fun story about the naming practices
of the ghetto underclass, and gives his thoughts on what is really
going on with Donald Trump's golden shower scandal. At the end of
this week's episode, Chauncey also shares some thoughts on Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr.'s radicalism and the inauguration of the
American fascist Donald Trump.
