Origami Elephants - June 20, 2015

Race and American Identity

Race and American Identity

Bryne and JR. welcome blogger and activist Grace Sandra to reflect on the shooting at the Emanuel AME Church in Charleston and the strange case of Rachel Dolezal pretending to be black. We investigate what race is, how it's similar to and different from gender, and how these comprise our identity.

From Series: "Origami Elephants Season 2"
