Bay Area journalist and critic Jeff Chang chronicles the interaction of art, race and social change in the U.S. over the past half a century in his new book, “Who We Be.” In earlier books, Chang wrote about hip-hop as an art and a significant piece of our history. This time Chang takes on the issue of race as a social divider.

Guests:

Jeff Chang, author of "Who We Be: The Colorization of America" and executive director of the Institute for Diversity in the Arts at Stanford University
