Dorothy Wickenden interviews @EOsnos for @NewYorker on the timely topic of “American Rage.”  If you’re trying to wrap your head around this growing phenomena, take a listen. While we’re thinking about it, in what ways did rage play a role in the creation of the new society of Gilead, in “The Handmaid’s Tale.”  We’ll look at that question in the webcast series, “If America Fails?  The Coming Tyranny.”

“Over the past year, public meetings have become scenes of chaos. Debates about the results of the 2020 election, race, abortion, voting access, and the COVID-19 vaccine have erupted in displays of frustration, rage, and sometimes in violence. This week, Evan Osnos, a New Yorker staff writer, published Wildland:  The Making of America’s Fury. It’s a portrait of a country in political and moral crisis. Osnos joins Dorothy Wickenden to discuss the roots of American fear and anger, and what the current manifestations of such emotions reveal about dangerous fault lines in the U.S.”
