Roifield Brown – separating race from a class system in Western politics

In episode three of the first series of the Echo Chamber Club Podcast, we chat to Roifield Brown.

Roifield is the founder and host of The Mid-Atlantic Show, a podcast that covers British and American politics. He has also written for New Democracy, the Guardian, the Huffington Post and produces the City Metric podcast for the New Statesman.

Roifield chats to us about his values and observations on 2016 – especially when it comes to identity politics. He goes into detail about what he believes to be a ‘liberal crisis’ over how to deal with extremist politics, as well as offering a way of rephrasing the debate so we can move forward.

Brown’s recommendations for alternative listening and reading:

• About Race – podcast
• Amina Lone – her twitter here
• The Black English – article written by Brown referred to in podcast
