#TheTightRope #CornelWest #TriciaRose Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Is Not Understood For Who She Really Is

 

In this premiere episode of The Tight Rope, Dr. Cornel West and Professor Tricia Rose ask their esteemed guest Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) the right questions for her to share powerfully about her journey, politics, and thoughts on social justice in an electoral framework, the discipline of non-attachment, and intentional vulnerability. Together they “pull the curtain” on power and explore what it will take to heal our nation. Find out how AOC walks the tight rope of being authentic and “acceptable” along with a special segment on defunding the police during Office Hours in this episode of The Tight Rope. As we all navigate the balance between hope and uncertainty, we invite you to join Cornel West & Tricia Rose on The Tight Rope, a weekly podcast where we take time to welcome listeners and guests as thought collaborators with our revered hosts, public intellectuals Dr. Cornel West and Professor Tricia Rose. The Tight Rope is rich in creative, unfiltered dialogue on topics ranging from pop culture, art and music, to the contours of systemic racism, philosophy, the power of Socratic self-examination, and the possibilities of a peaceful and just world. The program highlights the professors’ combined expertise to encourage critical thinking, self-reflection, and human connection as we navigate The Tight Rope.
