What is reparations? In this episode, I discuss 4 things that are crucial to reparations and then talk about some of your contributions. 

In this episode, I review philosopher J. L. A. Garcia's view of racism. He defends an agentialist conception of racism and defends an "infection model" of systemic racism. It's really fascinating stuff. 

This review looks over Ibram X. Kendi's view of the concept of racism found in his book, How to Be an Antiracist. Also, as discussed in class, I review three different views about the definition of racism: strict agentialism, strict structuralism, and hybrid views. I close by considering possible conceptual challenges for Kendi's view as well as considering possible responses to those challenges. The discussion in and outside of class has been wonderful.
