How Do We Begin A Dialogue on Racism?

Start by watching Bryan Stevenson deliver a Commencement address at NYU Law School, then watch the 13th documentary, and lastly, see two movies, BlacKkKlansman and The Green Book. And if someone tells you either of these movie are cliched or predictably sentimental, don't be surprised. You may hear 'what does this have to do with me in 2018?'  Know we cannot make progress anywhere – in education inequality or women's rights unless racism is discussed, too. Why? Because those two issues are met with identical reactions when someone tries to describe obstacles or problems.
