4/2 So You Want to Talk about Race w/ Ijeoma Oluo

April 2, 2018

Author Ijeoma Oluo (@IjeomaOluo) joins us today to talk about her book, ‘So You Want To Talk About Race.’ How Ijeoma’s mixed-race and class background informed and motivated the writing of this book. How class and race intersected in her life. How ‘racism’ is different when it reinforces a racial power structure. Separating intention from impact in conversations of race. Where America’s history with slavery and racial segregation intersect with economic class oppression. How awareness around race can lead to better choices.

Then for members Mark Crispin Miller appears on Majority Report on Air America on June 3rd, 2004, ‘Boxed In: The Culture of TV’
