  • Ep. 44 Uncomfortable Topics with Heather Mac Donald: Race, Skills Gap, Disparate Impact & the Role of Women

    “I'm going to speak the truth here, and this is not pleasant for people to hear.” In my podcast with author Heather Mac Donald, she says uncomfortable things about race, crime, feminism and more.For example, she says, “The reality of our world today is not white privilege. It's black privilege.” She says many jobs and colleges today unfairly favor black candidates with fewer skills. “Harvard until recently had about 16% blacks in its freshman class,” says Mac Donald, “If it admitted based on academic merit, there would be less than 1%.” She’s been repeatedly called “‘racist’ for saying things like that. “Am I a racist for bringing this up? I am not!” responds Mac Donald, “The facts are the facts … They have been completely kept out of the public eye to keep this systemic lie of racism going on.” In this podcast, more facts you won’t hear covered by mainstream media.

  • The Left’s Riot Playbook / Trump’s Biggest Test With Heather Mac Donald

    Heather Mac Donald, a bestselling author and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, is renowned for her incisive critiques of the Black Lives Matter movement and the media's role in constructing misleading narratives around police brutality. Her influential reporting during the 2020 riots captured national attention, exposing how anti-police rhetoric—propelled by inaccurate and sensationalized media coverage—intensified violence and endangered American cities. Grounded in rigorous data analysis, Mac Donald has persistently challenged dominant perspectives on race, crime, and policing, arguing that widespread claims of systemic police brutality against Black Americans are not supported by empirical evidence. WHAT WE DISCUSSED Why Heather believes one burned car is too many—and how the left normalizes chaos The overlooked cost of illegal immigration: ERs packed, schools overwhelmed, streets less safe Why the “illegal immigrant = criminal” narrative might backfire, even if deportation is legal The legal battle over Trump deploying the National Guard without Gavin Newsom Whether riots are grassroots or astroturfed—and if Trump can realistically stop what’s coming

  • When Race Trumps Merit, with Heather Mac Donald
    3 Whisky Happy Hour

    Heather Mac Donald may be the most fearless journalist in America. She is relentless in her reporting, bracing in her truth-telling, and ferocious in arguing her case. Her new book, When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Sacrifices Excellence, Destroys Beauty, and Threatens Lives , explores how the current attack on meritocracy in the name of "equity" is rampaging through almost all American institutions, in particular arts and culture, but also higher education and corporate America. Her bleak inventory includes the degredation of the sciences as well, which will if continued will exact a high cost. But our conversation also takes some unusual twists and turns, delving into some of the deeper aspects of the issues of race and merit that are typically neglected. We conclude our conversation with a discussion of Heather's recommendations for remedies, which will require some serious backbone on the part of the nation's political leadership that appears to be in short supply just now.

  • "Disparate Impact" with Heather Mac Donald

    Thomas Sowell calls "Disparate Impact" ideology the "grand dogma" of our time. But what is disparate impact and why is it so important? On this episode we take a deep dive into disparate impact ideology and how it has changed America. Joining me to discuss this important subject is Heather Mac Donald . Heather is a fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research based in New York City. Much like Sowell , Heather does research into domestic policy and urban affairs and tries to figure out what’s working and what’s not working. She then writes articles and books sharing what she has learned. Her first book was published in 2000 and was called “The burden of bad ideas : how modern intellectuals misshape our society” Three years later she wrote a book called “ Are Cops Racist?” This was followed with another book about policing in 2016 called “ The War on Cops: How the New Attack on Law and Order Makes Everyone Less Safe .” I first discovered Heather Mac Donald in 2018 with the publication of her book “ The Diversity Delusion: How Race and Gender Pandering Corrupt the University and Undermine Our Culture .” I loved that book and I remember finishing it then immediately starting it over and reading it a second time. Her latest book which just came out this month is called “When Race Trumps Merit, How the Pursuit of Equity Sacrifices Excellence, Destroys Beauty, and Threatens Lives .” USEFUL LINKS: • More podcast-related links here: AlanWolan.com • How to calculate the "Birthday Problem": Ted-Ed Video HERE • "Birthday Problem Khan Academy explanation HERE • You can purchase Heather Mac Donald's new book HERE • Photos of the CalTech Turtle Pond HERE • Jerry MacGuire "Show Me the Money" scene HERE • Heather Mac Donald Wikipedia page HERE • Classical Music featured in this episode: "Cello Suite No 1" by Bach, "Für Elise" by Beethoven, "Canon in D" by Pachelbel, "Humoresque" by Dvorak, "Caprice No. 24" by Paganini, "Symphony No. 5" by Beethoven, "Die Zauberflöte" by Mozart, "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" by Mozart, "Theme from Schindler's List" by John Williams, "Hungarian Dance No. 5" by Brahms, "Gymnopedie No. 1" by Satie, and "Ode to Joy" by Beethoven.

  • “The Diversity Delusion,” with Heather Mac Donald
    City Journal Audio

    Heather Mac Donald discusses the decline of the university and the rise of campus intellectual intolerance, the subjects of her important new book, The Diversity Delusion How Race and Gender Pandering Corrupt the University and Undermine Our Culture. She spoke at a Manhattan Institute event in autumn 2018. Toxic ideas that originated in academia have now spread beyond the university setting, widening America’s cultural divisions. Too many college students enter the working world believing that human beings are defined by their skin color, gender, and sexual preference, and that oppression based on these characteristics defines the American experience. In The Diversity Delusion, Mac Donald argues that the root of this problem is the belief in America’s endemic racism and sexism, a belief that has spawned a massive diversity bureaucracy, especially in higher education. Heather Mac Donald is the Thomas W. Smith Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a contributing editor of City Journal, and a New York Times bestselling author.
