The Radical Life of Thomas Sowell | Guest: Clifton Duncan | Ep 408

Thomas Sowell is one of the most important economists of the 20th century, but because he refuses to bend the knee to the left-wing establishment, he has largely been ignored and ostracized by the profession and the media. That’s why actor Clifton’s Duncan’s new one-man show celebrating the life and work of Thomas Sowell is such a valuable addition to the culture, popularizing Sowell among a new generation and adding to his already immense legacy.

Matt Kibbe sits down with Duncan to discuss his process, his inspiration for the show, and what it was like delving into the mind of one of the nation’s greatest intellectuals.

    Hey Matt- I had the privilege of meeting Thomas Sowell at a party in Ft Lauderdale that was put on by Market Logic in 1978 or 1979 as part of an investment conference. Since my wife had bought me his latest book shortly before the event, I knew his name and I think he was pleased to know I had his book.
    Small world! Cheers! Harry
