Jared Yates Sexton On How Our History Of Power And Paranoia Drives Crises
In his latest book, The Midnight Kingdom: A History Of Power, Paranoia, and The Coming Crisis, Jared Yates Sexton traces back a long history of conspiracies that have fueled authoritarianism, right-wing extremism, and led to several crises. It's in examining this history, Sexton argues, that we can best understand the current moment we're living in and how to avoid greater damages from the major issues we face to today - from the climate crisis to gun violence to wealth inequality and more.
Jared Yates Sexton is the co-host of The Muckrake Podcast, author of several books including The Midnight Kingdom.
