Summary

What is the connection between the anti-Israel protests we are seeing today and the 2014 unrest in Ferguson, Missouri? Is there a link to the French and Bolshevik revolutions?

“The reason they tell you there’s systemic racism is because if you believe that, then the only logical conclusion is you must have a completely systemic overhaul,” says Mike Gonzalez, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation. “It’s not about improving the lot of anyone. It’s about power.”

And what do these have to do with the industrialization of the West and America’s Great Society programs of the 1960s?

“It was those programs that disadvantaged the family, and I think that’s really at the heart of the problem,” says Katie Gorka, chair of the Fairfax Republicans in Virginia.

In this episode, I sit down with Gorka and Gonzalez to discuss their new book, “Next Gen Marxism: What It Is and How to Combat It.”
