Well, his idea of "race relation" is going back to colored people in chains and white people with whips. Getting 40 or 50 years away from that is a good thing.
"The dominance of neoliberalism frames inequality as deriving from personal responsibility or the lack thereof and replaces structural analysis with a focus on “race relations.”" - Barbara Fields
The Jacobin lol
Always worth a read just for the chuckle.
Not the type to read an interview with leading scholars on this subject I take it.
A historian is not a leading scholar on economics. That's a Jacobin-level tale from ya there

Their major area of study and impact as scholars is contextualizing the institution of slavery as a primarily economic relation. You're being confidently incorrect.
Jacobin is a leading left publication, if you're a right wing or liberal you probably don't agree with it's editorial stance, but dismissing leading scholars on a topic because of this is pure anti-intellectualism. Here's one of her essays Ideology and Race in American History that a prof seems to have hosted on their university site which contains some of her main ideas, you can lead a horse to water after all...
Jacobin is a rag, regardless of its leanings. It is poor quality reporting, writing, and commentary.
That it happens to be leftist is not part of why it sucks.
Yes you have made your opinion known, I would just say don't read it if it makes you uncomfortable. This is what happens when you get between an American and his anti-intellectualism I guess. For someone who is so self-aggrandizing about their superior intelligence it's surprising you don't know who someone as renown as Barbara Fields is. Your other pedestrian remarks make it obvious you don't know about the ideas being discussed here either.
It doesn't make me uncomfortable though. My OP says, straight out, that I read it for the laugh.
Same reason I read shit from Heritage Foundation.
pedestrian
Have you ever seen the old Nicktoons show Doug?
Only thing I'm hearing is that I need to share way more Jacobin links on lemmy now, but I'll block you so you can't see them, best of both worlds. Move over New Left Review it's Bhaskar's time to shine.
