   Ep. 72 | Rahim Kurwa Talks Policing, Housing & White Supremacy in the Antelope Valley

   Sociologist Rahim Kurwa discusses his new book "Indefensible Spaces: Policing and the Struggle for Housing." The book documents decades of antiblack racism and white supremacy in the Antelope Valley -- Los Angeles County's northern outpost. Professor Kurwa traces the Antelope Valley's evolution from a white segregated postwar suburb to a destination for individuals priced, policed, and evicted out of Los Angeles. We discuss how politicians, police and residents resisted Black migration through the policing of subsidized housing and how Black tenants, allies and organizers fought back.

   Ep. 71 | Both-sides-ing Fasicm & a NH Tech Lord Takeover?

   "We openly support the assassination of basically every elected Democrat in New Hampshire." So posted the New Hampshire Libertarian Party on X earlier this week. Arnie and Jon discuss how the likely person behind that post is embedded within the fabric of NH's rightwing ecosystem extending to the state's Republican Party. New Hampshire's also become home for Palantir CEO Alex Karp, who apparently sees the state as an opportunity to exit all those pesky regulations and equality commitments necessary for multiracial democracy.

   Ep. 70 | Thomas Zimmer On The Links that Bind AfD & Today's Republican Party

   German historian Thomas Zimmer joins the #RaceClass Podcast for a deep dive into AfD (Germany's neo-Nazi party), the links that bind AfD and MAGA, and what looking to Germany can teach us about the United States. We discuss the broad failure of liberal and centrist scholars and institutions to deliver an analysis or politics that attends to racism, patriarchy and other organizing forces that shape U.S. society and animate the global movement to redeem white Christian supremacy. Check out Thomas' newsletter "Democracy Americana" today: https://steady.page/en/democracyamericana/posts
