This is a can’t-miss conversation with one of the most influential black intellectuals of his generation. Ta-Nehisi Coates reimagines American history, reports on politics and writes some of the most powerful and emotional narrative in American letters today. “The Case for Reparations,” his George Polk Award-winning cover story on slavery and race for The Atlantic was one of the most talked-about pieces of nonfiction in recent memory; but his book “Between the World and Me” propelled him to international attention. Written as a letter to his young son, the National Book Award-winning work explores racial history with an urgency and eloquence reminiscent of James Baldwin.
