The race conversation, as we've repeatedly said for years, needs to happen. But why are we so bad at it? How can we advance and make an emotional topic more sophisticated?

In this episode I inject some context and nuance to the lazy back and forth lobbing of casual insult and accusation. This includes institutional, cultural, individual intellectual and historical critiques.

If you're challenged by what I say, pass it along. Through engaging again, we will rise above and beyond this low moment.
