PREVIEW - The Sunday Podcast: Kmele Foster joins Isaac and Ari to race, Pope Francis, and judicial independence

On today's Sunday podcast, Kmele Foster joins Isaac and Ari to discuss race, identity, and racial categories. They explore personal anecdotes, societal perceptions, and the implications of race in science and genetics. They also get into the complexities of genetic diversity, the absurdities of race science, and the implications of racial disparities in society, as well as cultural stereotypes, the dangers of racial pride, and the need for a more nuanced understanding of race in policy discussions. They talk about the passing of Pope Francis and the complex relationship between faith and politics, particularly focusing on the legacy of the Pope and the reactions to his political involvement. And, as always, the Airing of Grievances.
