Abstract

Political scientists Clarissa Peterson and Emmitt Y. Riley, III join Andy on today's show to discuss racial resentment at work. Dr. Peterson and Dr. Riley explain that racial resentment is an especially pervasive issue and a form of racism that makes its way into nearly every corner of modern life in America--even the workplace. On this episode and every episode, we dig into the complicated moral issues people face at work.
