Today's episode is a recording of a debate that occurred a few weeks ago between me and Jamelle Bouie, who is a columnist for the New York Times. This debate was hosted by TED as well as Open to Debate, formerly known as Intelligence Squared. The motion was, "Does Colorblindness Perpetuate Racism?" Jamelle took the affirmative and I took the negative.
Now there's a long backstory to this debate surrounding my recent TED Talk on color blindness and and I go into the details of this in the intro to the episode.
I really recommend that you listen to the whole debate and do share your thoughts in the comments.

great show, I was always inclined to "Colorblind" is the answer to Racism, but it was great to hear a head to head debate of the two steel man arguments.
