Introducing a sponsor and hosting a debate honoring Black History Month, this chapter delves into America's racial history and the concept of color blindness as a path to fairness. Contemporary thought leaders discuss the philosophies of prominent Black figures, aiming to pave the way for a more just world.
During Black History Month, we reflect on a debate that confronts America’s complex history with racial and social inequality. How can we ensure fair treatment for all in the workplace, on campuses, and in our personal interactions? Is it possible to imagine a future beyond race? As we honor this month of remembrance and celebration, we revisit a conversation that confronts the challenges of our past and the promise of a future that aspires to secure equitable opportunities for all.
