5/5 How Eugenics Made Modern Virginia w/ Elizabeth Catte

May 5, 2021

Sam and Emma host Elizabeth Catte, author of Pure America: Eugenics and the Making of Modern Virginia to discuss how Virginia’s embrace of eugenics allowed the state government to control its poor white population, land rights, and why we’ve memory-holed our eugenics past.

And in the Fun Half: Anthony Fauci’s disingenuous “agnostic” remarks about vaccine intellectual property, Tucker Carlson says the CIA is woke because elites, cats v. dogs, Mark Meadows says Republicans have no choice but to break up Facebook, how to police communities, a crazy call about eugenics and genetics, plus your calls and IMs!
