Emily Badger, a writer for The New York Times “Upshot,” discusses her story "Extensive Data Shows Punishing Reach of Racism for Black Boys." She is joined by Ibram Kendi, a professor of history and international relations at American University who is featured in Badger's article. The story dives into data revealed by researchers at Stanford, Harvard and the Census Bureau that black boys raised in America, even in the wealthiest families and living in some of the most well-to-do neighborhoods, still earn less in adulthood than white boys with similar backgrounds.
