Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

We welcome listener thoughts on the National Basketball Association’s action against Donald Sterling for racial comments the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers made during a recorded conversation. Culture and media critic Sheri Parks joins us, and we’ll hear from Hopkins professor Nathan Connolly, who specializes in racism, capitalism and property rights. Does this latest episode in our long struggle with racism reflect the shifting of power to a more diverse generation of citizens?
