Description

I chat with Associate Professor of Political Science at Philander Smith College, Dr. Joseph Jones. Dr. Jones recently released a collection of essays titled Purgatory of Consciousness: Black Politics in the Age of Obama in which he analyzes and critiques black America's response to the policies and personality of former President, Barack Obama. Disagreements and many allusions to pop culture ensue, particularly, Aaron McGruder's The Boondocks!
