Andrea Long Chu on 'Authority' with Arielle Angel
In an era marked by the constant stream of content and criticism from self-proclaimed experts, one might ask: Who, exactly, are the authorities we can trust? In AUTHORITY, a bold, provocative collection of essays, Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Andrea Long Chu (@NewYorkMagazine) offers a revised intellectual history of this timeless struggle, tracing the political contours of criticism from its origins in the Enlightenment to our present age of social media. Rather than succumbing to an endless cycle of inflated emergencies, 'Authority' makes a compelling case for how to approach criticism in light of the genuine crises—from authoritarianism to genocide—that confront us today. Watch Chu in conversation with Arielle Angel, writer and editor of 'Jewish Currents', as they discuss one of the most urgent questions of our time: What is authority when everyone has an opinion on everything?
