The best selling author of "How To Be An Antiracist" and "Antiracist Baby," Dr. Ibram X. Kendi joined Stephen Colbert via Zoom in June 2020 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 (Original Air Date: June 25th, 2020). Two years after their first interview, Ibram X. Kendi had found that hearing his name come out of Sen. Ted Cruz's mouth during the confirmation hearing for Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson did not deter him from pursuing his mission to encourage all Americans, especially children, to learn how to be antiracist. Check out Kendi’s two latest books, “Goodnight Racism” and “How to Raise an Antiracist,” available everywhere now (Original Air Date: June 30th, 2022).
