How is the Alt-Right the Legacy of American Slavery? (Part 2)
Manage episode 490752316 series 3652206
In part two, we fast-forward to today—where echoes of Fitzhugh’s vision have returned in surprising forms. From alt-right influencers to Silicon Valley billionaires and traditionalist politicians, a growing chorus claims that modern freedom has failed—and offers a new feudalism in its place. In this episode, we trace how the old logic of benevolent masters, dependent workers, and enforced order is being reborn through technology, nostalgia, and despair. This isn’t just a critique of capitalism. It’s a counter-revolution. And it’s already shaping the future.
