So You Think You Know About Race

On The Gist, at this point, whatever the Trump administration doesn't say under oath is very possibly untrue. In 1963, Robert F. Kennedy met with black America's greatest artists and intellectuals to talk about race. "And they lit his ass up," according to our guest, making known just how much needed to be done to address racial inequality. Michael Eric Dyson wrote a book about the encounter and its relevance to race issues today. Dyson's book is What Truth Sounds Like. In the Spiel, Miss America is scrapping its swimsuit competition, instantly making the United States perfectly meritocratic. Wait, not really. Learn more about your ad choices.
