Americans are obsessed with race because of our special relationship with people of all colors throughout history. Recently a number of news items stuck out to me as particular examples of the absurdity and lack of sophistication in which America deals with its race issue- Rachel Dolezal, and the casting of Emma Stone as Allison Ng.
I'm joined by Jimmy Son (@thejimmyjuice) to discuss what he thinks about these two issues. Finally, in light of the Charleston shooting and the media response to Obama dropping the n-bomb on Marc Maron's podcast, it's clear that we have much further to go.
