809: Velocity of Money
Douglas Rushkoff, Millennial Incoherence on C-SPAN
Footage from a Douglas Rushkoff book talk on C-SPAN features millennial audience members asking convoluted, jargon-heavy questions. One questioner attempts to link the "velocity of money" to community economies, while another asks about "virtuous global solution spaces" and "blockchain possibilities" without mentioning Bitcoin. The hosts use these clips to argue that modern higher education has failed to teach students how to formulate coherent arguments.
