In this episode, Dinesh has a wide-ranging conversation on race and politics with one of America's leading authorities on the subject. Shelby Steele is a scholar at the Hoover Institution, author of several books including "The Content of Our Character" and "White Guilt," and the producer and narrator of a new film, "What Killed Michael Brown." Dinesh and Steele discuss police shootings, where the civil rights leadership went wrong, the roots of Critical Race Theory, and the attempt to equate the filibuster and Georgia's voter integrity law with Jim Crow. Dinesh and Steele reveal "the road not taken," a way out of our current predicament and a path toward Martin Luther King's ideal of America as a "beloved community."
