Luke speaks with Aziz Rana about the importance of viewing the Trump administration through the lens of constitutional critique, the need for a majoritarian political system that recognizes the particularities of U.S. history, and the Indigenous and Black struggle for democracy, universal and equal rights, and a new constitution.
Last year, Aziz appeared on the Democratic Consitution Podcast, Cosmopod, and Class (parts one and two). He’s the author of two books — The Two Faces of American Freedom and The Constitutional Bind — and several articles, including “Democracy Was a Decolonial Project.” During the discussion, Luke mentions Maggie Blackhawk’s article, “On Garrison, Douglass, and American Colonialism.”
