My interview with @McCutcheonSays about the 2nd edition of Religion and the Domestication of Dissent is out @NewBooksNetwork! We chat about the book but more importantly we talk about the state of the field (spoiler: bleak) and what to do from the all-too-late place we're in now.

And, from a few weeks back with Judith Weisenfeld talking about her wonderful new book Black Religion in the Madhouse: Race and Psychiatry in Slavery’s Wake. I so enjoyed the conversation, and it’s always an honor to learn from Dr. Weisenfeld. Listen anywhere you get your pods!
