Synopsis:
Ritu Sen, who is the president and executive director of the Applied Research Center and a leading thinker on racial justice, speaks about what a “post-racial America†really means.The good news, says Sen, is that most people don’t intend to be exclusionary. More often, Sen suggests, racism is structural – embedded in society’s institutions and norms. Sen draws on an example from her recent book, "The Accidental American", Sen tells the moving story of a Moroccan immigrant who started an organization that fights for justice for all New York City restaurant workers. As Sen puts it, such a willingness to address the structural aspects of racism “is at the core of a compassionate, inclusive, effective society.†The Applied Research Center has created a toolkit for advancing equality for all in the Green Economy. What does it mean to you to live in an inclusive society?
