Tricia Rose is a professor of Africana Studies and director of the Center of the Study of Race and Ethnicity at Brown University, and a frequent commentator in American media and on college campuses about the state of race in America.
A few hours before her April 24, 2018 Marcus Bierich lecture at the American Academy, we sat down with Rose to ask her what is going on with race in America now, about the harmfulness of "colorblindness" among well-meaning whites, and how social media is both helping and hindering our understanding of how race works.
