559 - 9/11 Era, Pt. 2: You Can Not Yell At Me If I Am Crying (9/16/21)

We turn towards the cultural side of the post-9/11 era, looking at films, tv and music that defined the times, as well as the crushing, mawkish sentimentality that stifled debate and drove calls to war. And we finish the Kim Du Toit reading series from last week, then offer you another seminal 9/11 reading series from The Baseball Crank.  Plus, Felix has a mini-dissertation on how 9/11 and our subsequent foreign wars and national hysteria are reflected in the development of hip-hop over the last two decades.
