Episode 51

How Racial Panic is Destroying the Arts.

Heather Mac Donald is the Thomas W. Smith Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a contributing editor of City Journal, and a New York Times bestselling author, who has received numerous awards for her writing.

Mac Donaldโ€™s work at City Journal has covered a range of topics, including higher education, immigration, policing, homelessness and homeless advocacy, criminal-justice reform, and race relations. Her writing has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, The New Republic, and The New Criterion.

Driven by a sense of alarm, Heather's newest book, "When Race Trumps Merit", breaks powerful taboos, supported by data and detailed case studies, and warns that as long as alleged racism remains the only allowable explanation for racial disparities we will continue tearing down excellence and putting lives--as well as civilizational achievement--at risk.
