Nancy MacLean is the guest on this week’s episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show. She is the William H. Chafe Professor of History and Public Policy at Duke Universityand author of the new book Democracy in Chains: The Deep History of the Radical Right’s Stealth Plan for America.
Democracy in Chainsis also one of the five finalists in the 2017 National Book Awards for non-fiction.  
During this episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show, Nancy and Chauncey discuss how right-wing libertarians allied with the Koch brothers are working to systematically undermine American democracy, the intellectual origins of their dangerous ideology, and the various personalities involved in this movement. Professor MacLean also reflects on the intense backlash against her new book and how the radical right-wing is desperately trying to undermine the very idea of expert knowledge and are trying to remake American higher education in their own image.
On this week’s show Chauncey dares to tell the truth about toxic white masculinity, the color line, and the Las Vegas massacre which killed 58 people and wounded more than 500 last weekend. Chauncey also tells a story about being invited to appear on Tucker Carlson Tonight which airs on Fox so-called “News” in order to discuss his recent essay on white men and mass shootings in America. And in this episode Chauncey gives an enthusiastic endorsement of the new film Blade Runner 2049.
