The Woke Danger 4: Gramsci to Critical Theory
Channel: Larry the guy from Michigan
Date: 2021-03-02

This is the continuation of my series, "The Woke Danger." Presentations 1, 2, and 3 have already begun to address CRT (Critical Race Theory),  power relations, the Evergreen College saga, the basic premises of "applied postmodernism," and the history of underlying ideation and philosophy from Rousseau to Marx. "The Woke Danger 4: Gramsci to Critical Theory" picks up after Marx to briefly sketch the ideas of Antonio Gramsci, the Frankfurt School, and Critical Theory.
