Podcast Overview

We have become politically more divided than we have been in a long time. Why is this? What’s happening to us? Why do we argue so much with each other about racism, constitutional rights, border security, about freedom? What is it that we get so upset about? Why are we so tribal? And what conditions make us so divided now – what is it in the current era of human history that makes us so upset with each other? Every week, we invite a thinker who will shine a light on the question: why are we so angry?

Why Are We So Angry?

<p>We are speaking with Joshua Tucker, a professor of political science at New York University. Dr. Tucker has studied comparative politics with an emphasis on mass politics, including elections and voting, the development of partisan attachment, public opinion formation, and political protest, as well as how social media usage affects all of these types of political behavior.</p><p>Arguably the scope of Dr. Tucker's research has never been more relevant than it is today, We have two worlds with their own media, their own set of beliefs, their own geographical environment. Are people embroiled in debates over gun rights, abortion rights, and taxes ... or is there a deeper fundamental divide within our country?</p>
