Description

What happened when a black girl’s school was integrated, and she was moved from gifted and talented classes to basic classes? What happened when a black girl was bused to a faraway all-white school after attending a more mixed school the year before? What happened when a high school black girl was turned down because she was black when she asked out the white boy who was her close friend? How have these kinds of experiences impacted Black Americans views of white people, and how they move through the world in America?

In this conversation, our guests share and discuss examples of how racial bias has impacted their lives. They also discuss how racial bias plays a role in private sector hiring and what this generally means about the idea of white privilege.
