Shownotes Transcript

Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Jason Riley, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, about identity politics taking over the Democratic Party, Black Lives Matter destroying the message of MLK, and why Thomas Sowell has enjoyed a renaissance with young black conservatives. Jason discusses why he is disturbed by the influence BLM has on the Democratic Party. He points out how many people forget that under Obama, the black community fared far worse than under Trump. Jason also discusses Thomas Sowell and why he was inspired to write a biography of him as well as work on the documentary “Thomas Sowell: Common Sense in a Senseless World." Jason shares how Sowell’s insights on social justice are as relevant today as they were 40 years ago.
