Decolonizing Our Thinking with Dr. Lewis Gordon
from Chasing Leviathan Hosted by CG Productions
In this episode of the Chasing Leviathan podcast, Dr. Lewis Gordon, head of the philosophy department at UCONN, answers the questions: What is colonization? What is decolonization? The conversation ranges from what is true philosophy to Sartre to gazing at the stars. Dr. Lewis Gordon will return in the upcoming months to Chasing Leviathan to talk about his newest book, Fear of Black Consciousness.

Strength resides in its neck; dismay goes before it. When it rises up, the mighty are terrified. Nothing on earth is its equal. It is without fear. It looks down on all who are haughty; it is king over all who are proud. These words inspired PJ Wehry to create Chasing Leviathan. Chasing Leviathan was born out of two ideals: that truth is worth pursuing but will never be subjugated, and the discipline of listening is one of the most important habits anyone can develop. Every episode is a dialogue, a journey into the depths of a meaningful question explored through the lens of personal experience or professional expertise.
