A Gen X Liberal's Take on the New Woke Left
\u201cI consider myself a liberal. I still consider myself a feminist,\u201d says writer Meghan Daum. But the past few years have left her shaken. \u201cI did not feel that the new left was necessarily representing my values all the time. There was a sort of purity-policing that interestingly we used to associate with the right," she says. Between #MeToo, smugness on social media, the Covington high schooler incident, and an interest in the so-called "intellectual dark web", Daum is carving out her own political path. \nWe also cover the following stories:\n\nWhat happened during the first public impeachment hearing.\n\nHillary Clinton says Margaret Thatcher wasn't worthy of being in her new book about gutsy women.\n\nDisney is warning viewers of its older films that they may contain outdated cultural depictions.\n\n\nThe Daily Signal podcast is available on\xa0Ricochet,iTunes,\xa0Pippa,\xa0Google Play, or\xa0Stitcher.
