Ep. 64 | David Oppenheimer Talks Diversity, Pauli Murray & the Fight Against American Apartheid
#RaceClass
About
Justice Clarence Thomas doesn't know what "diversity" means. UC Berkeley Law Professor David Oppenheimer does. David joined the #RaceClass Podcast to discuss his new book "The Diversity Principle." The book traces the diversity principle's long and circuitous (and often overlooked) history -- one that weaves through John and Harriet Mill, the legendary Pauli Murray, and fights for academic freedom in the United States and against Apartheid in South Africa.
