Fair Game
The World

This election season has brought a candid and at times ugly conversation about race and the politics of identity.

Debra Dickerson is the author of The End of Blackness and she’s been writing about race and politics for Mother Jones magazine. She’s on Fair Game to discuss it with Faith.
