The dudes pay respect to the recently departed Charles Mills, whose work on ethics shaped the landscape for much of what we now know as critical race theory and the philosophy of race. The dudes walk step-by-step through his essay "'Ideal Theory' as Ideology," and ponder over the value (or lack thereof) of idealizing when doing ethics. Plus, Troy rants about the phrase "doing my own research," and Austin recommends Pandora Sykes' book How Do We Know We're Doing It Right?
