Musa al-Gharbi, We Have Never Been Woke: The Cultural Contradictions of a New Elite

Musa al-Gharbi, sociologist and assistant professor of communication and journalism at Stony Brook University, will converse with Professor Amna Khalid about elite politics, the election results, and the role of marginalized minorities in US politics. He published his book We Have Never Been Woke with Princeton University Press in October. Musa is one of the sharpest public intellectuals of our times. Link to praise for the book. A powerful critique, We Have Never Been Woke, reveals that only by challenging the elite’s self-serving narratives can we hope to address social and economic inequality effectively.
