Author and podcast host Coleman Hughes joins Bill to discuss his new book, "The End Of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America."

The last thing he said about algorithmic social media miseducating us goes for a lot more than just race

[kimj]

I have immense respect for Coleman. "Social media algorithmically boosted content is not educating us, it's miseducating us." And, that's not a flaw in the system. It's part of the design.

[bambooshot]

So glad Coleman is getting a wider audience. TEDx did him dirty!

[tfhouoe]

I had a similar childhood as Coleman. We didn't see race as kids. We just cared if they were WCW or WWE fans. If they played Pokémon. If they liked the Power Rangers, etc. We all saw each other has human beings.

Coleman is an extraordinary person. Gives hope for the future.

If we ever get past this period of craziness, it will be in large part because of the public engagement of thoughtful people like Coleman. He does give me hope.

[Permitmon]

I applaud Bill Maher for bringing us diverse viewpoints. Well done.

Coleman is the clearest, calmest, and most reasonable speakers on this topic. He articulates what I’ve felt intuitively but could barely describe. I will be definitely be buying his book and sharing it with everyone who will read it.

[jaysouth]

Coleman’s podcasts are excellent as well. Great debates with intelligent, well educated guests. Highly recommend.

As a Mexican working remotely with an “all white” set of coworkers from all around the country. I’m respected, hired and acknowledged not because of my race but because of my job experience, education and soft skills.

Wonderful to see Coleman on. He gives me hope. John McWhorter & Glenn Loury love him. Intelligent, reasoned, articulate & compassionate. He will go far.

A Mexican who grew up in Northern Vermont as kid in 6th grade never knew what racism was..lived a life of freedom and, opportunity. But the love I have for this country the believe that morality, decency respect the rule of law matters. Everyone should hold themselves accountable for each and every choice we make.

Coleman is the only podcaster I pay to suscribe to. What he's saying is so important and he says it so well, I want to support him as much as possible. I'm also going to buy his book.

[carlsopa]

Coleman, thank you for your excellent work and pushing for betterment of society!

[mediocreape]

Coleman is increadbly smart! his podcast is great too.

[ed-gnkl]

Never heard of him before this interview. Great interview will keep an eye out for him

[alliwanttosay]

Very eloquent and intelligent young man

[seanheelan]

Get this man more air time everywhere. He nailed it.

[briane]

....Which I said the minute social media became a thing. We went overnight from the Information Age to the Propaganda Age -- and all for political aggrandizement.

[Bapakgila]

WOW, I hope this man will run for an office one day or get appointed to an office that can make an impact. I was somewhat shocked how a young man like Mr. Hughes could make so much sense with so much clarity. I will be following this amazing man and yes, I will be buying his book.
