McGhee, the former president of the think-tank Demos, discusses the costs racism has for white people and how it continues to be the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all.
She details the history of towns and cities across the country shuttered public pools rather than integrate them and explains how what she calls the 'Solidarity Dividend', gains that come when people come together across race, to accomplish what we simply can’t do on our own, is the path for America's multi-racial society to fully thrive.
