Our next guest is one of the most respected scholars and public intellectuals exploring race, history, religion, and democracy in America today. He helps us break down the African vs African American debates.
From growing up in Moss Point, Mississippi, to attending Morehouse College at just 16 years old and ultimately becoming a distinguished professor at Princeton University, he has built a career centered on challenging how we understand America and its complicated history.
From becoming the inaugural chair of Princetonโs Department of African American Studies, to appearing on programs like Morning Joe, Meet the Press, and Deadline: White House, and writing acclaimed books including Begin Again, Democracy in Black, and America, U.S.A.โthis episode is thoughtful, powerful, and deeply insightful.
From conversations about growing up in Mississippi, Black history and identity, race, religion, education, James Baldwin, democracy, leadership, and what America can learn from its past as it looks toward its future, this episode is packed with wisdom, perspective, and inspiration.
