We\\u2019re sharing a clip from an episode of Some of My Best Friends Are\\u2026

\\xa0

Here\\u2019s a preview of another podcast, Some of My Best Friends Are, from Pushkin

Industries. Harvard professor Khalil Gibran Muhammad and journalist Ben Austen are friends, one Black and one white, who grew up together on the South Side of Chicago. On Some of My Best Friends Are, Khalil and Ben, along with their guests, have critical conversations that are at once personal, political, and playful, about the absurdities and intricacies of race in America.\\xa0

In this preview, Khalil and Ben are joined by Donald Yacovone, author of Teaching White Supremacy. In the midst of new laws to ban books about race and the teaching of slavery, Yacovone digs through thousands of school textbooks and finds that most already emphasize whiteness as the core of our national identity. Khalil, Ben, and Donald chat about how the history we\\u2019ve been teaching over the last 300 years isn\\u2019t necessarily the history we made, and how that has informed our current social crisis.
