Bad Faith is two shows in one: it's a panel show about politics and pop culture with a rotating cast of performers and politicians, artists and activists, writers and radicals; and it's a two-way podcast where two people from two very different parts of the left make the case for one less terrible world.

Briahna Joy Gray (@briebriejoy) is a former attorney, National Press Secretary for the Bernie Sanders campaign, co-host of campaign podcast Hear The Bern, and a journalist who is early enough in her political career that she remains (tragically) sanguine.

Virgil Texas (@virgiltexas) is an internet user and co-host of Chapo Trap House.

Episode 89 - "Fat Back & Biscuits": On Clyburn, CRT, & Capitalist Realism (Part 1)

Jul 15, 2021

What does an ideologically diverse group of Black marxists have to say about Jim Clyburn, CRT, identity politics, and the future of left politics post-Bernie? It turns out, quite a bit. We convened this panel to talk about Haiti, but this conversation was too good to cut off prematurely. We'll be delivering hour two -- the Haiti conversation -- in a bonus episode, but tune in to this episode to hear us debate how to beat Jim Clyburn at his own game, whether calls to defund the police and meaningfully address climate change are ultra left, and whether the left can be saved by a Black Bernie Sanders.
