Excellent analysis- have you considered offering your Substack to schools so students can take it for credit? I’d more vivid than the bleached history they are force fed. Like how you framed the past as gangster - settler colonialists trying to sell the violent acquisition of native land and resources as rightfully earned.

And WAPO revealing 75% of white Ivy League legacy admissions wouldn’t have qualified on their scores was a gem, witness Kavanaugh at Harvard, Bush at Yale, Trump at Wharton.

Absolutely fantastic episode. I'll be sharing it widely. Can you elaborate further about the idea that a "non-binding" UN resolution is legal nonsense? It's coming up a lot as I'm reading through commentary about the enormous ruling from ICJ that came out on Friday, the one that further de-legitimizes Israel's occupation of Palestine. If you've talked about this in more depth elsewhere, I'd be so grateful to have a source or link. Thank you so much for all of your work!

Too funny that the GQP calls it Didn't Earn It. They certainly Didn't Earn It and haven't for over 400 years

That's the exact point I make!
