Lawrence Lanahan
Lanahan talks about Michael Brown's story of structural racism. He tells that when the story of racial inequality erupts in a place like Ferguson MO, it is quickly subsumed into the larger national debate about race. The national media descend, politicians and activists seize the spotlight, and there are the inevitable calls for a "frank" conversation. Early coverage gravitates toward the raw emotions stirred by the incident, followed by speculation about what it all means for the country and its values. He comments that what's missing from this coverage are the regional dynamics of racial inequality.
