This week in San Diego, two teenagers opened fire at a mosque, killing three people, in an attack reportedly tied to a manifesto driven by “Great Replacement Theory”— the belief that immigrants, Muslims, and minorities are “replacing” white populations. But San Diego is not an exception. From Christchurch and El Paso to Buffalo, the GRT has become the ideological spine of modern mass violence. In this episode of The Tea, historian and bestselling author Ibram X. Kendi joins us to unpack how an extremist conspiracy theory evolved into one of the world's most influential political narratives. The GRT transforms demographic change into an existential threat. It turns diversity into invasion, and violence into “defence.” So who is driving this shift — and whose interests are served by its spread? Also in the show: ⚡ The origins of the GRT — from Renaud Camus to mainstream politics ⚡ The White House, “remigration,” and the normalisation of extremist rhetoric ⚡ GRT and the myth of “Judeo-Christian” that serves Israel’s agenda ⚡ Anti-racism and DEI — the corporate backlash against structural change ⚡ The rise of “Great Replacement” financiers and politicians ⚡ Tommy Robinson, Elon Musk, and the politics of hate Kendi argues that confronting this ideology requires rejecting the zero-sum logic at its core. And recognising that shared humanity may be the only way to break the cycle of fear, division, and violence. 👉 Subscribe for fearless, independent conversations 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts #TheTeaWithMyriamFrancois #IbramXKendi #Islamophobia #IslamicCenter #SanDiego #GreatReplacementTheory #USPolitics #UKPolitics #news # #currentaffairs AUDIO CR…","meta_description":"https://www.theteanetwork.co What happens when one of the most dangerous political theories of our time goes mainstream?
