Crisis in Perception

Blackballed — Campus Racism as Institutional Design (Audio)


Listen Later

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.

This episode explores Blackballed by Lawrence C. Ross as a systems-level analysis of how American universities manage racial inequality through denial, symbolism, and reputational control.

By focusing on institutional incentives rather than individual intent, the book reveals why campus racism repeatedly resurfaces — and why meaningful change is so often delayed or diluted.
