A radio segment in which Dr. Michael Eric Dyson responds to a Georgia governor’s refusal to apologize for slavery. Dyson distinguishes personal prejudice from systemic oppression: a public official, as the face of an institution, inherits responsibility for that institution’s harms — just as a pope answers for the church’s past. He recalls Black veterans returning from the Second World War to segregation, and cites research showing a Black man with no criminal record faring worse in hiring than a white man with one, to argue that accountability is owed at the level of systems, not only individuals.
