Why do so many people combat prejudice based on their race, sexual orientation, or disability? What does segregation look like today? Many of us ponder and discuss urgent questions such as these at home, and see them debated in the media, the classroom, and our social media feeds, but many of us don't have access to the important new ways philosophers are thinking about these very issues. Enter UnMute, the popular podcast hosted by Myisha Cherry, which hosts a diverse group of philosophers, and explores their cutting-edge work through casual conversation. This book collects 31 of Cherry's lively and timely interviews, offering an accessible resource through which to encounter some of philosophy's most socially and politically engaged, public-facing work. Its original illustrations, depicting the interview subjects up close, show just how broad a range of philosophers - black, white, and brown, male and female, queer and straight, abled and disabled - are at the center of crucial contemporary conversations. Cherry asks philosophers to talk about their ideas in ways that anyone can understand, explaining how they got interseted in philosophy, and why the questions they investigate matter urgently. Along with the interviews, the volume provides a foreword by Cornel West, a section in which all the interviewees explain how they got into philosophy, and a "Say What?" glossary defining terms that might be new to some readers. Like the podcast that inspired it, the book welcomes in those new to these philosophical questions, those captivated by questions of race, class, gender, and other issues and looking for a new lens through which to examine them, and those well versed in public philosophy looking for a one-stop guide"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a A revolution of ideas -- Meena Krishnamurthy on political distrust -- Denise James on political illusions -- Lori Gruen on prisons -- Jose Mendoza on immigration -- Wendy Salkin on informal political representation -- Rachel Ann McKinney on police and language -- Cassie Herbert on risky speech -- Luvell Anderson on slurs and racial humor -- Jason Stanley on speech, satire, and public philosophy -- Winston Thompson on educational justice -- Serene Khader on cross-border feminist solidarity -- Joel Michael Reynolds on disability -- Elizabeth Barnes on the minority body -- Douglas Ficek on Frantz Fanon and black lives matter -- Rachel McKinnon on allies and ally culture -- Kyle Whyte on indigenous climate justice -- Andrea Pitts on resistance to neoliberalism -- David Livingstone Smith on dehumanization -- Linda Martin Alcoff on the future of whiteness -- Chike Jeffers on black thought -- Lawrence Blum on teaching race -- Tommie Shelby on dark ghettos -- David McClean on money and materialism -- Vanessa Wills on Marxism today -- Nancy Bauer on pornography -- John Corvino on homosexuality -- Tom Digby on the problem of masculinity -- Justin Clardy on love and relationships -- Paul C.
