Glenn Loury to Host Clifton Duncan on Art, Polarization, and Respectability Politics
Hoover Institution fellow Glenn Loury announces an upcoming livestream episode of The Glenn Show, scheduled for Friday, May 15 at 1:00 P.M. EDT. The broadcast will feature performing artist Clifton Duncan, who is currently developing a one-man show about the life and work of economist Thomas Sowell. The discussion will cover Duncan’s recent essays on identity, art, and politics, including his piece titled “How I Became a Fascist.” Additionally, Loury plans to continue a critical exchange with editor Mark Sussman regarding respectability politics, a debate initially sparked by conversations about minstrelsy. If time permits, the show will address several significant current events, including the Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais, allegations of sexual abuse of Palestinian prisoners in Israel as reported by Nicholas Kristof, Robert Kagan’s analysis of Iran’s strategic gains against the U.S., and Zeynep Tufekci’s warnings concerning hantavirus communicability. Access to the livestream is restricted to full subscribers via Substack or YouTube membership, highlighting the platform's subscription-based model for content distribution.
