There is no such thing as being “not racist,” says author and historian Ibram X. Kendi.
Some Americans insist that we're living in a post-racial society. But racist thought is not just alive and well in America--it is more sophisticated and more insidious than ever. And as award-winning historian Ibram X.
Ibram X. Kendi is the author of "How to Be an Antiracist." He discusses his recent work with Eugene Scott, a political reporter for the Washington Post’s "The Fix". The two spoke as part of the Alma and Joseph Gildenhorn Book Series at the Aspen Institute in Washington, DC.
Four Hundred Souls is a unique one-volume “community” history of African Americans. The editors, Ibram X. Kendi and Keisha N. Blain, have assembled ninety brilliant writers, each of whom takes on a five-year period of that four-hundred-year span.

The best selling author of “How to Be an Antiracist” and “Antiracist Baby,” Dr. Ibram X. Kendi joins Stephen Colbert to discuss what it takes to call one’s self antiracist, and how he believes it’s in everyone’s interest to end the racist policies that cause inequality in this country.
