Unlocking Us with Brené Brown

Roxane Gay on "Stand Your Ground: A Black Feminist Reckoning with America's Gun Problem" (2024x12)

Air date: Sep 25, 2024

talk with one of my favorite cultural critics, Roxane Gay, about her long-form essay on Black gun ownership. We discuss how the gun industry frames women as victims in waiting and the importance of dismantling the trope of the "good man with a gun." We also delve into the societal cost of our resisting, rejecting, and resenting nuance and the importance of holding the tension of competing ideas.
