Conversation and learning connected to anti-racism are absolutely vital to our culture. They speak to every American and are crucial for understanding how racism shapes the United States (and what to do about it). Our guest today is THE person at the forefront of this movement, none other than Dr. Ibram X Kendi. 

When Dr Kendi sits down with Talib Kweli and Jasmin Leigh, the conversation flows immediately. Rather than keeping things on a surface level, the trio talks ADOS and reparations, breaks down the idea that the word “racist” could be a pejorative, and discuss the influence of Black Liberation Theologists like James Cone. It’s a sprawling conversation that dives deep on serious issues. 

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to better understand the impact of slavery and racism and how they have shaped our nation.
