Ep. 75: Derek Black's Awakening from White Nationalism

Derek Black was the heir apparent of white nationalism. Now he's speaking out against it. Tune in as he and Mayor Emanuel talk about his journey of personal awakening, along with the movement's political strategy, Chicago’s place in its ideology, the power of exposure, and how President Trump's white nationalist rhetoric forced Derek to confront the past he had hoped to leave behind.

Only a few minutes in and really wish Emanuel would stop interrupting him. Edit: over a quarter of the way through now and can’t take him constantly talking over Derek Black. Gonna go look for another interview to watch which is unfortunate since Emanuel did have some good questions...if only he’d have let him finish answering before cutting him off.
