About this listen
In this podcast episode I examine White male privilege and the different ways it permeates our society. I tackle unbalanced congressional representation, unfair and inaccurate attacks on what is called 'affirmative action' and the desire of even non-overtly racist White males to maintain an intolerable status quo. Progress has been made in creating equality among all people... but not enough and not fast enough.
***My novel, The Final Sleep, imagines an alternate timeline where a mysterious ailment begins exclusively killing men of European descent. Over several years, global society is thrown into turmoil. Cause and cure remain out of reach despite unprecedented international cooperation and financial resources being brought to bear. As the world grapples with mass death and crumbling power structures, a potential genetic reckoning forces humanity to confront long-buried truths about privilege, power, and identity. Survivors must also consider the unthinkable: forging a new future in the absence of White men..***
