Host DeWayne Wickham sits down with The Washington Post's Pulitzer-Prize-winning columnist Eugene Robinson, and journalist, author, and educator Farai Chideya to discuss "Race and Media in the Age of Obama." With the presidential election upon us, this timely discussion explores the critical intersection of race and media in the 2012 campaign and its implications for America’s vote. The conversation is moderated by DeWayne Wickham, founding member/past president of the National Association of Black Journalists and USA Today columnist.
This one-hour show is the first in a series of monthly programs that will explore current events and issues through the lens of race and culture in America and throughout the diaspora.
