Talking About Talking About Race
from The Gist Hosted by Peach Fish Productions
Today on The Gist, a brief history of beer with William Glenn and Trish Parry. Their show A Brief History of Beer is at the Under St. Marks Theater in New York the last Sunday of every month. Plus, author Baratunde Thurston joins us from the new Panoply podcast About Race. He's the author of How to Be Black. Guidelines for talking about race include: 1. Assume good intentions, especially online. 2. Shut up. Listen. 3. Try to make it not just about yourself. "But I've never" isn't a good argument. It's about a bigger system. For the Spiel, does it matter if our politicians are out of touch? Today's sponsor: The Netflix original documentary series Chef's Table.
