| the entire program
GUEST: Beverly Daniel Tatum, President of Spelman College in Atlanta, and author of “Can we Talk about Race? And Other Conversations in an Era of School Resegregation”
Can we Talk About Race? That’s the central question that Beverly Daniel Tatum asks in her new book. Tatum is the President of Spelman College, the oldest continuing historically black college for women. In this new book, “Can we Talk about Race? And Other Conversations in an Era of School Resegregation,” published by Beacon Press, she addresses some of the most important questions on race in today’s America, including the relationship between race and education, the return to school re-segregation, the role of higher education in bridging racial divides, and much more. Tatum’s earlier book was “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?”
