Why do we celebrate Thanksgiving? What's this holiday really about? Meltingpot host, Lori Tharps is joined by Dr. Crystal Fleming, author of the new book, How to Be Less Stupid About Race and together they deconstruct the Thanksgiving holiday. Note, it's not pretty, but it's an important conversation we all should be having. Because we all need to be a little less stupid about Thanksgiving.

Welcome to the My American Meltingpot podcast. A podcast where we have conversations about pop culture, parenting and identity politics from a multicultural perspective. In our trailer, meet host Lori L. Tharps and hear why she believes America needs a podcast that centers diversity.
