Coleman Hughes. A really fine conversation re one of our current problems. I don't agree with everything Mr. Hughes says, but I agree with most. Ian, I know you want a good conversation about our racial problem. I may be wrong, but I think you might like this one:

This is actually quite good. Like you, I won’t say it’s perfect, and I personally believe that some of the delivery is skewed a bit, but you take these 3 and put them in a room of like minded people to discuss things, and you’ve got a chance.

There’s a really good back and forth I found researching this guy more on the internet where he makes a compelling counter argument in front of congress on a topic and in response to someone I personally feel is actively making things worse for race relations in this country:

Additionally, I wanted you to know that I personally really appreciate the way you posted this. No opinions, no potential for me to build up preconceived notions/defense mechanisms.

Well done, you were right
