Join a live podcast with Futuro Media’s ‘In The Thick.’ Co-hosts Maria Hinojosa and Julio Ricardo Varela meet up at Aspen Ideas with Dr. Brittney Cooper (aka Professor Crunk), author of Eloquent Rage, and Dr. Michael Kimmel, author of Angry White Men and Healing from Hate. They’ll explore why everyone seems to be mad as hell, how anger has infected and transformed our politics, and why race and gender matter when it comes to rage in the Trump era. But can anger be something other than ugly — perhaps even a source of energy and creativity?
