‘There Is A Fight Going On’: Joy Reid On America’s Racial History

Joy says, “too many people want to keep Americans blindly numb to the raw, racial violence in our collective past. They want Americans to just shut up and feel good about America’s founding, and sing from the hymnal so they don’t have to think about dealing with the repercussions of our true history and the need for repair.”
