Episode 6

For our special Thanksgiving episode, we are joined by Heather McGhee, a brilliant voice on issues of race, class and democracy. Previously she served as the president of Demos, one of the nation's most critical institutions conducting cutting-edge policy research and litigation to build a democracy for all. Her new book is entitled "The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together," which explores the self-destructive bargain of white supremacy and its rising cost to all of us—including white people—from one of today's most insightful and influential thinkers.
