    • Arts

My guest today is Ramesh Nagarajah. Ramesh is a recent graduate of the US Naval Academy and a newly commissioned 2nd Lt in the United States Marine Corps. He is also the author of the recently viral article, Reflections From a Token Black Friend.
In this episode, Ramesh and I discuss the importance of honest exposure to different cultures, how racism should be defined, virtue signaling, tangible actions people can take to make a difference, how to start a conversation on race, and much more. This was an eye opening conversation with a gracious, caring, patient, intelligent, and all around excellent human being.
