"An eye-opening exploration of race in America--and the ties that actually bind us"-- "In this deeply inspiring book, Winona Guo and Priya Vulchi recount their experiences talking to people about race and identity on a cross-country tour of the United States. Determined to ignite a substantive discussion about racism, these two young women deferred college admission for a year to travel to all fifty states, conducting hundreds of interviews that uncover how racism plays out in this country every day, and often in unexpected ways.
“it's called tell me who you are it should be mandatory reading for anyone who wants to understand why we are in the situation we are today”— George Raveling
The guest here is George Raveling: An 82-year-old Hall of Fame basketball coach and Nike's former director of international basketball who, as the first African American head coach in the PAC-8, became the keeper of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s original 'I Have a Dream' speech. He is known as a coach of life as much as sport. 82-year-old coaching legend George Raveling reflects on race, leadership, and hope amid the George Floyd protests of 2020.
